Once it knocked my ESC loose from the mounting tape. I was wondering if anyone made a taller piece to prevent that from happening. I wish they hadn't incorporated the damper mount into the battery stop, otherwise, I would just mount several of those pieces together to make a thicker version. I would love to hear what others may have done to solve this. Or am I the only one that hits things?
We use thin double sided carpet tape under the battery, replacing every battery change. That stops the battery from moving. Only a small strip is required.
