Default S2 Capacitor Mounting

Capacitor Mounting

Everyone has their own voodoo. This is my voodoo. This is what works for me.

I'm still using the OEM waterproof Rx box on my S2.

I didn't want the capacitor just hanging there.

I notched out the top of the box where I wanted the wires to come out.

Next I cut a 1/2" strip of .020 styrene plastic and made a loop around the cap - punched a hole to accomodate the M3 screw used to hold the Rx box top in place and added several pieces of masking tape to take up the slop in the fit of the strip to the cap.

If you have another or better way to fix, mod or improve the S2 then by all means post it.

All voodoo is welcome here -
