RE: waterproof reciever?
Ku1210,
I don't think you can get a waterproof reciver. The only thing I can think of is to put the reciver in a thick plastic bag and seal the end the wires come out with tape, or you would have to make a waterproof compartment in the airframe to house all the radio gear, similar to the boat guys do. Good luck with it.
Cheers.
