Sorry but its not JR's fault. R/c boaters have to take precautions before heading out. It saves lots of time and money!
Aeroplate isn't 100% guarantee that your rx wont short out.
I use this stuff If you care to try it out
Just for a test (if you dare) take your aeroplate rx and put it in a bowel of water while everything's still connected and see if or how long it works. Now take your conformal coated rx and try it. I can tell you I have and the conformal coated rec has won hands down. I rolled my new cat the other day and 2 minutes after getting all the water out, we were back testing with no glitches.
