It has been rain a lot lately and had to quit a number of times because of afternoon downpours. I decided to look around for something to cover the control with so I could keep going. I spotted this colored pencil set at Walmart, that was packaged in a vinyl pouch that looked the perfect size to fashion and look a little better than the zip lock bag. I cut it off to size and added a couple of Velcro strips on the flap to keep wind from taking it off. Seems to be the answer to that problem.
I had to use a piece of duct tape on the top because there was two opening on either side that needed covering to make it rain proof. Another thing I did because the buttons were difficult for my big thumb, was to add some clear cabinet door button to the control buttons. I picked these up at Home Depot and they were domed, so I took a razor blade and shaved off the dome to make them stick better and more comfortable on the thumb.
