About Dampeners
We offer all mounting solutions with or without vibration dampeners.
- Our recommendation: We strongly advise using dampeners to protect the electronics from mechanical shock and vibration.
- Important note for drone users: Excessive dampening can introduce resonance that interferes with the drone’s flight stabilization system. Based on our experience, minimal, hard dampening is usually the optimal balance for airborne systems.
