fieldfairy2's Slash 4x4

Thanks guys. Yes the electronics are water proof. The receiver is not but is in a water proof box. Brushless motors are waterproof. Like all motors it puts more load on the motor when in water, and has a risk of burning up the motor.

You are right to a certain point. Brushless motors are not waterproof completely. They are more so water resistant. Brushed motors can run all day in water, which is also how some people break them in. Brushless motors on the other hand can not be broken in in water. Sensored BL motors are not water proof due to the sensors, Sensorless BL motors are more water friendly.

Nice pick-up!

Been meaning to grab one of these beauties!

Mind me asking, how much did it run you?

Also, why the Slash and not the Slayer?

Blade.
