Default E-maxx brushless- water

I am on vacation in Red river, nm and I brought my E-maxx brushless and I got to close to the creek and the truck fell in the creek.. I dryed it out. Am I screwed? It runs for a little bit and then it cuts out. It was only in the water for only 5-10 seconds. I am going to wait tomorrow and try it again.. Any ideas would be great...

The speed control is probably the culprit. The radio should be fine if it was in the stock waterproof box. Take the ESC apart and let it dry. You may want to put the circuit board into a bag with uncooked rice for a while or let it dry out in the sun.

The emaxx ran well today. Didn't have any issues and hope I won't have any issue in the future
