Water proof server
 
I need a high torque and would prefer a high speed waterproof servo. Does HiTec make such a thing? Or a simple method to waterproof one? I was looking at the 5XXX and the 7XXX series but didn't see anything on waterproofing.

Due to the rotary nature of the output and various sideways leverage put on the output arm and cases, manufacturers do not list servos as waterproof - water resistant only.
Waterproofing a servo may assist - voids warranty.
