Mounting the FC

[Vidal]

Hey guys
Why';s the best way to mount the flight controller?
I hear people talking about using some kind of gel to stop vibrations. Where do you get this from?
Cheers

Gel pads here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PU-Adhesive-Gel-for-Gyro-Vbar-K10457A-gp-780-Futaba-/160692941621?pt=US_Character_Radio_Control_Diecast_Toys&hash=item256a0bb335

You can also use foam tape, neoprene type with sticky pads.

The Arducopter people are also mounting their FC with elastic bands between posts..

It';s a crius AIOP v1.1 and I got a kk2 board. Have ordered gel. Can you elastic band this board too?

I think you could do it with any board..  if you cant get the rubber through the holes on board you could warp them round some plastic bolts.. I haven';t tried this method myself..

I use thick neoprene foam and sticky pads. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5m-Black-Single-Sided-Foam-Tape-20mm-Wide-x-4-5mm-Thick-/280685282418?pt=UK_Crafts_Cardmaking_Scrapbooking_Glue_Tape_EH&hash=item415a258472
