having raced in the wet with the m05 there really isnt to much you can do in terms of rain proofing to the chassis. just plan to clean every steel part once your done that meeting, otherwise if left all will start to rust.
However the electronics are simply covered by using blu tac. best solution and easily to do just cover all the esc, receiver joints and plug holes etc.
as for the motor a little more difficult if you have lots of vent holes, us running the hobbying there really is only where the a,b,c wire come out which again more blu tac solves that.
