New Robot Biulder with Sidwinder control

Just to let you know the system worked first time and in the right direction!!!! I was told this speed controller dose not need a heat sink and should be fitted in foam rubber how are most of these speed controllers fitted in working robots. Also how do you secure the radio receiver to the robot I have a spectrum 6000 receiver in this robot. Again thanks for all your advice.

We out our receivers in a little box, and make sure we have everything shockmounted with rubber foam or rubber mounting blocks whenever possible.

Quite a few people have got into using high strength Velcro as a form of shock proofing and attachment for electronics, but really nothing can beat a good foam padded box (which luckily can weigh next to nothing!).
