no but commonly used items are silicon o-rings(like in the bottom of your shocks) to go between the servo and the horn, then pack some marine grease at the same area. take the 4 screws out of the top of the servo(just a little) and put some silicone sealant in there and close it back up. all other electronics get stuffed in ballons and zip-tied shut.
these steps will not water proof the truck, but will go a long way to resist water damage.good luck[8D]

I use an ecologically safe brake cleaner to clean off my truck when just brushing stuff off isn't enough. Doesn't leave a residue and dries almost instantaneously. BE careful as some brake cleaners may attack certain plastics.
Hope this helps

dip all ur electrons in this and ull be good to go, for servos just peel enough off so it can turn.... packing it with some grease as talked about above isn a bad idea either
