hello everyone again

i got a esc i want to put in my boat but i dont know how to water proof it with out encasing it with wood or something.

i have a PC-series mosfet speed control with no turn limit. im gonna run it with a 15 turn motor on 6 cells.

do you think i could just put it in a ballon or will it get too hot.

or should i use aeroflyte dope and coat the micro chip.

or is there a better way. (this esc might get very wet, like under water)

Corrosion Block.
Scroll down a few items.

This stuff works great on all electronics. Ask anyone who has used it.
It will not waterproof the electronics, but it will prevent water damage and will keep them working even under water.

The only way to truly waterproof electronics is to pot them in epoxy. (It is a special electronics grade epoxy, not just hobby stuff so don't get any strange ideas)
Epoxy may void any warrantee, but the Corrosion Block will not.
