Just got done driving my TT my dog was running after it and I forgot it rained hard yesterday and ran it in the ditch!!!!
Ok guys it ran after I did the deed but when I stop it to inspect it the servos was going back and forth bad then they just stop working.
Is it time for some new ones?
The motor ran fine but a little sluggis!

Deep water halfway the tires!!!
 
haha lol XD
i loved driving thru water when i had mine..

take ya battery box out & separate everything & dry it out

as for the motor, i used to take it out pop the plug exhaust & carb off & plop some wd40 in the engine give it a shake & leave it for 2hrs then flush with neat petrol

:)
 
Ok a few guys told me to let it dry out and I did. The bad thing is when i opened the reciever box it had a little water in it. The batt. was wet and the reciever was a lil wet.


I let dry and recharge batt plug back up and nothing happens!!!!!:(

Do you all think its the reciever or the servos or all???????:(
 
Do you have a spare receiver you could try the servos with or a spare servo to try with that receiver? Also check the output from the battery with a multi meter to be sure it is ok.
 
try using some 90% rubbing alchohol on the rx circuit board especially areond the chips, this will help displace teh water adn the alchohol will evaporate. let it set and dry out, you could also use a hair dryer to speed up the process a little. and if after that it still doesn't work then you might replace the rx.

i would wait on replacing servos until after you have ruled out the receiver
 
Put all your electronics in a bowl of dry rice for a day. It'll suck the moisture out. Take the servos apart.
