Can the JLX micro go in water the same as the overdrive?

I wouldn't recommend it. I'm pretty sure the first one died because of oxidation caused by water or moisture.

No, it can not. After looking over the car I found no seals and that water could easily get into the car. But it works wonders on land!

No, I don't think so. Packaging didn't say anything like that, and it's got batteries that go right in the car, so I wouldn't think it could go in water.

Yes. 100%. The truck can be totally under water without a problem. I own 2 of them. Best basher out there.

I wouldnt. Although the esc is waterproof, and the servo, i dont know about the velineon motor. The titan motor is submergable. They sell tires that can float on water.

you get both the motor and the esc. and they are both completly waterproof.. ive had no problems with them.

I think the VX Sport hull is a bit smaller/narrower than the FX. The cover will probably be loose.

go to you tube a watch the company video on the fisher GB-2 and on another video from a customer of the fisher gold bug pro it shows him using it with the coil in the water just like I did in lake huron just don't get the control box damp or wet cover with plastic bag, it works great

All electric R/C motors are "waterproof." Or rather, the act of running them in water does not cause failures but if you leave them wet, sitting on a shelf, the metal components will begin to rust and corrode.

Yes to all of the above. I took mine on a river float and did all of the above and listen to my music. I love this case! No water leaked in at all. It's very reliable. I did do a test with a folded napkin inside and submerged it in water to just test it and make sure it wasn't a defective one before I submerged my phone in water with it. For the price, you can't beat it!

If you read my reply, I said that there is a little motor with it. Sorry - thought that was clear. Note: a motor is not the same as a pump; however, it does move the water around, as in agitate.

Not at all. The servo and esc are not waterproof at all. You would also ruin your drivetrain from rust.

The hand wringer is as affective as the foot pedal. My assumption is that even being one system/device for both, it works differently. I just checked mine by watching close while spinning both ways. It was an independent spinn-off. Also the pedal is very sturdy. The pedal will never deteriorate and break if you keep that part away from water with an average use.

i dont think so , the motor seems pretty well sealed , but i would put the esc in a plastic box or balloon if you might get it wet, definitely would not submerge in water,

Yes, but in my experience, it would not recommend it. I don't like to mess around with where the water could meet electronics. Just my prerogative.

No. I've put a wavestorm in one and that was pretty much its limit. There is a larger version that is made for longboards but that would probably still have trouble with a SUP

From my understanding the speed controller is not waterproof. Hope this helps.

No, they aren't sealed in any way. Water can get in through the switch ports, the camera port and the microphone port, as well as the micro SD slot. Whether or not immersion in fresh or pool water would do permanent damage is hard to say. Lithium batteries don't cope well with short circuiting, so the most likely failure if immersed in water would be battery failure. Immersion in seawater would almost certainly corrode the internals.

coils are advertised to be 100% water proff. NOT the controll box. One post I read stated to put control box in a zip lock bad so if you dropped it there would be some protection. Not a bad idea really.
