    Default Ressurecting a sunk boat.

    New to this , but getting the fever. Flooding a boat seems to be fairly common, and it wasn't very hard to flip mine. It looked like, as one poster said, a "buoy" with only about 6" of the bow sticking straight up. Managed to retrieve it and dry it best as I could, but now nothing works. Is there some magical fix, or am I replaceing a bunch of parts? Would appreciate any help

    well what boat do you have? Most likely its the rx, let the stuff dry out good before powering it, and theres a good chance it will work.

    This... No substitute for time and dry air.

    Thanks for the replies. It's a BJ26 brushless. I'll continue to let it dry, and hope for the best.

    saltwater or river?
    if its on river wash with pure alcohol and let dry very well.
    open all circuit parts and wash it with pure alcohol and a small plastic brush.
    Don't say i can't. You mean i don't want !
