I am trying to obtain a waterproof (IP67) servo and they are backordered till September 22. and its only an IP 67! So I decided to do what I do and make one...I wanted to use readily accessible parts-concentric sizes of brass tube a cup seal from Nautillus Drydocks and regular soft solder (well within any good modeler's wheelhouse) and the servo is sealed inside a fiberglass box with 5 min epoxy
The finished product is 1/3 the size of what I am presently using and 1/2 the weight.
Time will tell-it will shortly be sitting at the bottom of a 4ft 2" Diameter PVC pipe filled with water to test it at Depth...Stay Tuned!
Update-I stopped the test after 5 days boredom set in and I needed the servo arm back...
