Good 1/10 2 wd buggy waterproof ESC and motor combo


Recommended Posts

Unless you actually plan on actually submerging your car you might not need a waterproof esc at all. Most 1/10ths have quite tight fitting shells so if you run a little stick on velcro around the shell and chassis to seal it the electrics stay dry even in the worst rain. If its a rear motor car the motor itself is exposed but actually sensorless brushless motors are waterproof anyway.

 

Oh, and Hobbywing Ezruns are slashproof already. Not truly waterproof but if you follow my advice above the two should protect you even if you drive into a deep puddle. I'd be more worried about the servo and reciever - in 25 years I've seen a lot more of those killed by water than escs. 2-3x more at least.
