    Here is my progress on waterproofing the ESC so far:

    I'm using Marine Epoxy and filling the inside of the ESC with Silicon... Its kind of hard to get it to go inside (between the 2 boards) since silicon is sticky but I tried my best to squeeze as much of it in there as I can. I gave the silicon a coat of epoxy as well... just to make sure its air tight in there. I think it'll hold up quite well!

    I'm ordering some plate of aluminium on amazon... perhaps something 3x thicker than the original plate at a slight longer size.
    Perhaps it would help to wrap the edges of the aluminum plate down so that its long enough to have direct contact with the cooling lines.
