Balloons around all of the electronics. With zipties or rubber bands around the tip of the balloons

Naturally that will protect the electronics, but how well can a nitro engine work against water? Rain/snow, etc. I imagine it would rust, although I could be wrong.

as long as it can breath it should be ok... but be careful not to get it really hot then hit a huge puddle and cool it really fast. you might warp something.
