Yes the steering servo is, but since it comes with a brushed motor it is not, unless you upgrade to a brushless veleniom one by traxxas , worth the money!!!

Traxxas makes many great RC cars, and this is one of them. Check YouTube, it is water resistant but not waterproof. There are some cool videos about how water resistant they are. I think the box said it went up to 32 mph. My 8 and 10-year-old can control it pretty easily, but it is pretty stinking fast. The best part is if/when they break something, you can buy replacement parts for pretty cheap. You can also make upgrades because there are so many aftermarket parts out there. This is not an RC car that you would buy from a toy store. This is a hobby grade RC car. It is worth the money!!! Highly recommend. Traxxas makes many great RC cars, and this is one of them.

We don't think it's waterproof, but it might be water resistant. We've never had it around water as we use it to carry geocache supplies in it and it stays in the car most of the time. I bought this as a gift for my husband and he loves it. He says he would definitely recommend it depending on what you are using it for. It can get heavy depending on what you have in it.

Yes, it is waterproof, and it will get a heart rate in a pool using the provided chest strap. It does not have a GPS.

not waterproof... don't take it under water. it's good for riding in the rain though, all openings are sealed with rubber. ie the button is rubber, the USB charge opening has a rubber stopper, and the battery opening has a rubber seal.

fast enough for the beginner, it is upgradable with a brushless motor kit. you would be better off buying the one with a brushless motor set up. yes, waterproof however i always dry off after rinsing.

It is a fast little boat, but remember it is small. Mine is also very water tight. But, the water must be smooth...or you run the risk of flipping it over.

It is in fact waterproof; however, the picture quality stinks. The quality is like when the first digital cameras came out with like 1.5 pix. I wouldn't recommend you buying this camera.

It is waterproof. I got it for my daughter and her husband and they loved it.

Not waterproof. But water does not damage it, I use it in the rain and as long as you don't mind getting a bit wet it's comfortable and dries fast. Material does not soak up water too much.

I bought one in June and in 1 test it was waterproof as advertised. I will know more in a few months. I park my bike outside at work in Oregon (i.e. lots of rain coming in the next 8 months). There was 1 big rainstorm this summer. When I came out, my bike was dry. Water was sitting in a puddle on top of the cover, and wasn't dripping through. That was a good sign. I am hoping it will be waterproof as it will be out in the open.

Yes it is waterproof, I've had it on my truck for 4 months now and have taken it through a car wash every week sometimes more

the truck is waterproof however the speed controller is NOT waterproof. I've actually ran into this problem.I was just running through puddles and I short circuited my speed controller.

I don't think it is waterproof. It is a heavier material though and it doesn't soak through easily. I've never had a problem with it being in the rain. the outside gets wet, but never the inside.

Yes, it is waterproof! I think you will like it. But, don't put it in the washer, just hose it off.

Its waterproof. I bought a cloth cover to go over it for more comfort. Worked great for me!

No, it is not waterproof. I'd say it is resistant to light rain, but it can and does get wet.

It has worked very well for us. It is not protected, and we have had some rain. It is working fine. We haven't had a lot of wet weather, but enough that I can say that it seems to be waterproof.
