Then go to waterproofing

EDIT: Link doesn't work. It's something like that. It is plasti-dip that you use.

i got mine when they first came out. a hs by my camper had the skies, paddlers and rims for $75 and i talked him down to $65.now that people see how good they work they might have gone up in price.
i have also seen people use a ski kit fron dubro for planes and just mod them. i dont know what has to be done to them to make them work, but in sure some sufing on the web and youll find it.

i have a easyer way. loosen the 4 screws on the bottom of the servo so you can split the 3 sections. then use a small bead of rtv calk (you can find at any auto parts store) in the 2 openings. then retighten the screws and smooth the calk. after that a small dolup of petroleum jelly under the servo horn and let the calk dry. reinstall the servo ant balloon the rx and zip tie the opening.
What are you guys doing to keep the motors up to temp? I have issues starting and keeping my tm up to temp when it's only 44 outside.
I like that waterproofing idea. For my short run in the snow today I am not going to do it but in the near future I probably will.

I wrap some aluminum foil around the head. it keep air from getting around the cooling fins and helps keep the temps up better.
I ran a bit in the snow today. I think the revo is sealed up pretty well for stock. Looks like the only problem would be if you actually submerged it. Tons of fun...
aight thatnxs for the info guys
