How to put a heat shrink on a ESC?
 

Hi Guys,

Some months ago I bought a Mamba-25 ESC, but the heat shrink around the ESC tore. Ok, so now I want to put a new over the ESC, but how should I do this? Because castle has done this very well. Look at this pic:

How should I do this? And it should be tight around the ESC, not loose of course :lol:


Thank you,

Best thing is to find heatshrink that fits as tight as possible before you shrink it. Cut it about 1/4" longer on each end, 1/2" total, and evenly apply low heat to it. If you heat it too fast it will distort, and if you apply too much heat it will melt. A std hair dryer will work fine. I use a heat gun, but move quickly and do not get too close.

Ok thank you! I already thought about something like that. But wasn't 100% sure about it.

Thank you!
