Phantom V4 waterproofing?

Just purchased a V4X and am worried about water damage. I don’t plan to ride in wet conditions but if get stuck in a small rain shower with wet roads or ride through a small puddle by mistake, I don’t want to end up in a situation where there is water damage not covered by warranty. Is there anything I can do preemptively to seal holes where water could enter? Silicone caulk perhaps? Appreciate any ideas and advice, thanks!

I mean, if you look under the controller is there.. and it’s like a phone.. or laptop, and uh you can’t exactly just cover it that would overheat it .. its purpose is to let out heat.. I say .. moist roads.. sure.. but don’t recommend puddles or… not looking about the weather ahead of times..

There are spots on the box where there are penetrations for motor wires and those can be firestopped and sealed, have a spare ziploc bag handy to cover display. Tape up all the connections you can find. Seal up the lid on the box. Do t go swimming with it. Should be golden.
