I'm also thinking of buying the Seawind EP, the wing and motor tips were great, thanks. I've been working to select what components to use and noticed this warning on Li-Po's:
LiPo Airplane Battery Warnings:
8. Do NOT get wet or expose to moisture.

I was going to use this battery, but now I'm having second thoughts:
11.1v 2100mAh 16C Li-Po

Yes I plan to waterseal the receiver and ESC and maybe use some foam to seal the hatches. But now I'm concerned about Li-Po's and Seaplanes. Can any experienced Seaplane pilots shed some light on their use of Li-Po's?
