How do you mount your Castle ESC's?

[HZRDOS]

Just wondering. I hatebthat Castle ESC's don't have any mounting screw holes. I use RPM ESC cages for all of mine, and just got one ready for the new MMX8s coming for the infraction.

Have them in 3 of my 4s rigs with MMX ESC's. Love not having to use tape or zip ties, and can just remove the screws for the brackets that hold them down to the base plate. I screw the base plates down to the stock ESC mount. Have never had an issue with them coming loose.

Other thung is that stupid little castle switch. They all also come with a switch mount which is really nice so the switch can be screwed down.

Mounted in the K4S

How I had it mounted in the MT410 I sold

And here is the one for the MMX8s. Made for the XMAXX, so just toss a few of the pieces and this is what I will use.

Fits nicely into the stock ESC location

He is all I ever have used. He has some amazing esc holders.

Check out radio controlled power. They have awesome stuff.

I tried the one they make for the MM2 and I was not impressed at all, the plastic is way to flexible and the top part only secures using 1 screw on each side so your esc just flops around in the car no matter how you have it mounted. The one for the MMX8s looks to be much better.

In my ET48.3 my MMX is just held down with 3m double sided tape.

Had a hellova time getting the xlx2 into the Mojave!! Ended up making my own plate to relocate the massive esc. It’s been slightly tweaked since these pics tho

I don't jump my Kraton much, so Gorilla double sided tape works for me. For the switch, I use the PPS switch mount for the Mamba X 8s.
