gummy stuff
 
I recently noticed that some drivers had put some strange gummi-stuff on the openings of their (bl) motor, ESC, ... to protect them from water and dust geting into the electronics.

Could someone tell me what this stuff is, a name?
It seemed like placticine

In Belgium you should find the UHU patafix. Does a good job at waterproofing ESC, receiver, etc.
