Description
I use the xESCs in an OpenMower robotic lawn mower. This bracket is intended to prevent the heat sinks from shaking loose from the xESC board over time and potentially causing a short circuit. I use them for two month now (during summer) and they work very well so far.
The bracket is clipped with the hooks to the pcb of the xESC Mini. Mine are the ones Gadgets By Vermut included in the OpenMower kit v0.11 with STM32 mpu.
The dimensions of the heat sinks are (the bracket will only hold with these dimensions):
I use PC, but PETG or ABS are probably suitable as well, PLA will not be heat resistant enough to use it in a mower outside in the sun.
