Is this the right goop stuff or is there another kind? not sure what kind of plastic on these spektrum sattelites but package says not for polystyrene, polyethylene, or polypropylene plastics.... thx

Well I am liking this goop stuff. It has fully cured 24 hours have done several bench tests cannot get satellite to go offline. Gonna run a few more packs through 450 then hopefully test hover 6HV later if it doesn't start pouring…

i use hot glue , did ircha at 110degrees with it no issues.and if it "lets go anywhere (as i also use it on wires through carbon frame routing.(so no wire chaffing).you jsut take a tip of the gun gun , no need to add more glue jsut heat it up and restick the object into it , on an rx , ive never had it let go.

Also , its instant cure.so hotglue , and go , no wait for it to dry.

Ya I did the BeastX Spektrum and Gryphon w hot glue like it in those places… I was afraid to use it on the sattelite in case need to take wires out… may have to try it around the frame areas I've got enough glue sticks to last 50 years…

Rule of thumb:

If it smells like solvent it's probably bad for electronics and circuit boards. Not just if it touches them, the vapors are bad too. Silicone is bad because it gives off acetic acid while curing... bad for electronics. The "food grade" silicone is supposed to be OK.

In the end, I'd MUCH rather "maintain" a glue gun than a tube of goop. The hot glue peels off perfectly too.

As far as the solvents... you may likely crash your electronics to death before the solvents do enough damage to matter, who knows... I'm just OCD with my $365 vBars.
