Default RE: MT in Rain


ORIGINAL: geofferama

Any tips for waterproofing the connection btwn the servo-failsafe?
I was thinking a glob of shoe goo would do it.
I'm sure Shoe Goo would work but I don't know how easy it would be to remove. I had to solder a connector onto one of my servos so I painted about 3/4" of the wire with Plastidip. It's sealed inside my receiver balloon which is inside my radio box so it should be OK. Doing that made me want to Plastidip my charge jack but I don't know how far it will wick into the connector. Hot glue works but it's a pain to pick off.

I recommended staying away from reverse because it's one more piece of electronics that can get messed up. I'm not guaranteeing that the servo would get ruined but the possibility is there. What kind of truck are you running geofferama?
