Soaked robot?

Made a disturbing discovery in the shed last night...I left the door open and 3 days of rain have fallen on Judge mental.....So everything looked pretty soaked....I was chatting to Aaron at the time and he suggested hair drying them and then shoving in a bag of rice..so did that

There are two of steves hacked tz85s and a red 80amp brushless esc (coated in its original red heatshrink) ... any other suggestions ?...and when do ya think it will be safe to test em? Should I open up the esc cases?

They weren't totally submerged...but very wet.

Just pull apart the TZ85as and dry em out. Same with batteries and other ESCs.

She'll be fine
