Anyone ever dipped a battery pack??

Probably not good for thermal reasons? Balloon or some other appropriately sized latex device......should work.

ya i would vote against it....lets just say Zap! sniff sniff what the hell is that smoke coming from....
You only need to worry about water getting down the screw hole in you servos the outsides are almost watertight. Guys in Europe race in the fricken rain and snow and they dont have those problems but i would stay away from taht water and stuff with my racing buggy just to be safe, thats what the madforce is for lol
