Waterproofing RC Electronics Using a Hot Glue Gun

This is another method of waterproofing your RC electronics and does seem to work well. The method of putting the receiver inside a balloon and cable tying it is also good but can fail if the car is under water for a while. One advantage of this method is that you still have access to the plug sockets if you need to change anything. A disadvantage is that the plug sockets are open to mud and sand etc. so you could even use both methods on the same receiver. I usually buy ESC's and servo's that are waterproof from the factory but occasionally end up with some that aren't. Receivers tend not to be for some reason. I don't think that there is a disadvantage to using hot glue on a circuit board. Doesn't seem to have damaged anything so far. Many thanks for watching.
