Any ideas?
My car's barely been out of my warm garage 5 minutes and look at it!
Any ideas?
unfortunately,that will happen whilst its outside being built.
try libraley coating with wd40 to keep the moisture from any bare metal component
Where have you been in that? Driving through the sea? 
A lick of Smoothrite will stop the rust getting any worse 
My way of dealing with this:
Waxoyl saturated rag wiped over parts if you don't intend to paint the part... It will polish with a clean ish rag once "set" if you
don't like waxoyled look...

I stumbled upon this stuff which doesnt leave a nasty oily coating on everything and I can highly reccommend it!
Works really well for giving things a nice shine and keeping out the water and surface rust - not on your braking surfaces though since its PTFE
based.

Fact of life bare metal will rust or corrode.
As soon as it goes outside whether being built or driven it'll rust.
I would have painted them before fitting.

Everything else is painted (just about.) As you can see, I painted the prop adapter as I know how easily these go. I didn't expect the yam bits to be mild!
The output shaft from the motor isn't mild steel !
but it is low cr alloy steel so will rust like mild
