WTB: Thermal adhesive tape for LRP TC SPhere heatsink
 

Has anyone had the unfortunate incident of having their LRP Sphere TC Spec heasink come undone? Mine came right off as I was adjusting it and now I do not know where to get that thermal adhesive tape to re-attach the heatsink back on.

I know not to CA or shoe goo it back into place. Also, since I use the TC Spec is there a kit to convert it back to a no-heatsink esc? Something flat like the regular Sphere?

If you got some of that adhesive thermal tape let me know how much with postage etc.

Thanks! :D

Samething happened to me! Couldn't find any thermal tape so I ended up putting thermal paste on the center of the heatsink and Shoo Goo around the outer edge to hold it in place. It has worked so far, which is 3-4 weeks of offroad racing.

Thanks. I'll try that for now.

Can someone please post their experience dealing with LRP support? Maybe they can help.

I have had good experiences with Novak and Spektrum (Horizon Hobby).

Call Associated they will get you the tape squares. Have done it in the past. Also you might want to call 3m or look around thier website. They make the stuff and you could buy a roll of it, and sell it for a crazy mark up to all your friends. 1$ a square inch! :sneaky:

Good Luck

Thanks for the info. I'll contact Associated. The other idea sounds good too. :D

Also, does anyone know if LRP sells the low profile OR regular Sphere flat heatsink? I could only locate the upgrade world's kit. Has anyone ever done it the otherway?

I realize now that I only need the regular sphere since I race only 13.5 and 10.5 motors for off-road. Also, carpet season is starting and the Sphere is pretty small w/o the heatsink.

Thanks again.
