Tornado S30 + Icy Parking Lot = FUN!!
Live on a huge dirt parking lot. It snowed then rained and then got really cold. Hole parking lot was a big sheet of ice. Decided that would be a fun time with my buggy. Iwas right!!Iwas dirfting all over the place. Doing 360s and jumping it off some small snow banks. What a blast lol. To bad that the parking lot only get like that will alot of luck once in a blue moon.
what are the chances of burning up a servo if it gets wet? Ihave stock one on the throttle and a Team intergy metal gear high tourge one on the steering. Both still work fine but Iwas wondering if that might happen. Ice and stuff did get all over the car.
Isaw some traxxas servos that stated water they were water proof. So if these happen to get messed up Ijust have to get those.

We did that last week with our RC's. Look into Squirrelod on youtube. He has some good video's on waterproofing your RC. Everything from making your stuff water resistant (like you need), to making it so your car can drive under water

buy some plastic dip, or liquid elec tape and put it on the seems of the servos. then put some grease under the servo horn.
with snow, its usually pretty hard to burn out a servo. water does damage, not frozen water. make sure to let it dry off upside down.
