Homemade double sided tape out of duct tape for a few weeks or months. Double sided tape for long term use. Velcro for on and off usage.

The sticking, I found a few minutes with a clamp to hold ot down works well after an alcohol swab.

I think you left out zip ties. Best Mounting esc/receiver duoble sided tape or velcro lock? Whats you choice (3)

3M foam tape is good, helps absorb some of the shock. We put it on the back of placards and ADA signage that we make at work. Sticks good. Best Mounting esc/receiver duoble sided tape or velcro lock? Whats you choice (5)

I just went and soaked it for a few minutes, doesn't appear to be absorbing any moisture. it's dense foam so not very porous.

If you use any of the 3m tapes, let them sit 12 to 24 hours to get a strong bond. they actually get stickier the longer they are in contact.

This is the receiver box I'm going to use on build. Due to the fact that the Tmaxx receiver box is huge for a 2.4ghz micro receiver. But screw holes don't fit with any pre drilled or placement holes in chassis. So you can see what I'm trying to mount receiver to inside of box the to chassis. I hope lolBest Mounting esc/receiver duoble sided tape or velcro lock? Whats you choice (15)Best Mounting esc/receiver duoble sided tape or velcro lock? Whats you choice (16)

Is that just like the velcro lock?

kinda but a different concept. its interlocking mushrooms not the hook n loop. way stronger and takes more force to engage .I also use silaphrene for my Hardcore bashers and racers along with my drag cars.. a litttle dime size dab and that box rx or esc aint moving but with a mildly hot wire it will come off.. I've even used stainless safety wire in a jam

That locking system has been used for many years . its the removable system used to hold things on walls then remove cleanly..
