Default waterproof?

Just sunk mine in the pool. Got it apart in front of a fan drying out. Any chance it will survive. Got it out fairly quick. Led light was still on when I pulled it out and unplugged battery

I'll be hopeful and say 90% chance 3n1 board and battery will dry out just fine.

Just an update. Plug everything,back in this morning hooked battery up and everything works pretty good. Put two batteries through it just now and all is well hopefully. Wouldn't recommend trying for yourself though. Lol

Been through that with small quads which I have crashed into the pool. Have also put lipos through the wash in pants pockets with not ill effect Turns out non-salt water isn't really a great conductor for low voltages and currents. I have read that rotary servos don't fare as well as linear ones when dunked though.
