Vhb tape.

Post by Robochris » Tue Jul 25, 2017 9:59 pm

The tape I have on hand measures 1mm thick. Will that cause any issues on the top half?

I'm using 1mm VHB - no issues.

try to get the 0.5mm since it's slimmer but it might not close super flush all the way but as long as it's closed it's not an issue.

I originally purchased 1mm VHB tape and ran into issues closing the unit, using the tape on the micro lipo and screen (1mm+1mm=2mm). I purchased the .5mm tape that Helder recommended and everything went together perfectly!

Good call out. I only used 0.5 on the lipo charger so perhaps 1.5mm total is the limit 😁
