Default RE: Foam Padding Alternatives


ORIGINAL: raptureboy

I still pad my batteries and my receiver. Vibration will over time destroy batteries and also damage receiver boards. Gosh the hobby foam is so cheap compared to a crashed plane. I've used carpet foam ,foam pipe insulation, hobby foam, foam from packaging,you name it.
Old, used mouse pads for the receiver and battery. Buf not the newer, thin ones. I usually hard mounted the fuel tank exept in my Uproar - there i used very soft foam.
