Marinize an aero ESC with a TicTac box some epoxy Aluminium tube and hot glue. A nice water tank directly on the heatsink over the FET's lots of volume flow seems more than adequate  Its epoxied on with hot glue over that to seal any holes.


My plan is to use this ESC on theis motor





It don't have much specification on HK's site but my understanding is it a 
2185KV 28mm diameter ,33mm length with a 3.17mm shaft weight 230g  I got the 32 mm prop too.


Looks like a nice quality device seems to have great reviews on HK's site


 Its air tight and if it get hot enough to melt the hot glue its probably toast in any case
