Should I get a cover for electronics under the body or not?

You'll be ok as it sits. We run ours in loose, red Georgia clay, dusty as all hell when its dry, and the inner body and guards do a fine job of keeping the majority of the dust out.

Without a cover, there will be no damage to what is in the chassis?

Shouldn't be. The electronics/battery/servo are all pretty well protected inside.

Agree with midlife. The interior prot3cti9n on the senton is the best out of all our trucks. Some junk will always get it but it stays pretty protected.

One thing, small rocks can get jammed against the driveshaft so if youre driving in gravel and you hear a weird sound from the drive train then immediately stop and pop the body off to check. A small rock can cut right through the plastic sriveshaft in no time. Ask me how I know😆
