Mamba x mounting question
 
I’m trying to install a new mamba x esc on my 1/10 yeti. What is everybody using to mount the esc. I bought the rpm esc cage and it doesn’t fit. Wondering if there’s another cage I don’t know about. I could just use double sided tape and a zip tie.

I used servo tape on my MMX.

Yup.i used velcro to absorbe some of the shock the MM2 im using in my 2wd slash that only sees road use ,I have the suspension almost bottomed out to keep the chassis low .I think it helps the electronics somewhat safer .im not sure this helps , but anyhow thats how i have mine .

The RPM cage fits if you trim one corner

Just double tape, best is an outdoor tape like tesa powerbond outdoor https://www.tesa.com/en/consumer/tes...d-outdoor.html (don't know if you get it in the states but sure similar are available) and a zip tie to secure just in case. But normally not necessary, if i dismount my esc i have to be very gently to not destroy the esc case, just take care to remove the sticker on the bottom of the esc. the rpm cage is nice too but needs a little modification.

I use RC Helicopter double sided GYRO gel tape, it comes in several thicknesses and it does an amazing job of vibration dampening, I also use it on any RX with AVC or TSM (they have gyro's in them). I hope this helps, Ed

I used the super strong Velcro on my YetiXL - it's held up so far. It's also tethered with a zip tie in case it comes loose.

I can lift the entire truck by the ESC without the Velcro separating.
