PS. Tekin now suggest all rx8 owners uses kyosho gel tape to help reduce tekin concussions.
I directly bolt my ESC's to the chassis. In my Tekno's they're bolted to the ESC plate, no tape. There are 3 mounting screws on the bottom of the Rx8 where we supply 3 small silver screws for mounting the ESC to items like this. |

This isn't accurate. Sure you can use it, but it's not an official recommendation from us.

Tekin not heavy-duty

My bad Randy. This was the information that trickled down to me. I was misinformed. Thanks for the correction.

The Kyosho zeal gel tape will dampen vibration. It won't do jack for dampening shock.
Go ahead, push down on the ESC, that tape is firm as heck. You can remove the center of the tape to make it softer, but then it won't stick to anything well, so you'll have to CA glue the tape down. |

They come with a mounting plate and screws ,but when fitted to the sc leaves a @7mm gap.ie gets higher ,i cut mine down just leaving a gap to slide cable ties through, and also under the stock7 mount ,and fitted 1/4 rubber in-between. Ps the hobbywing doesn't seem to be troubled by concussions as much as tekin !
I did the Kyosho zeal stuff. I guess I'll see how it goes! |
