The K&S KS4972 receiver protection wrap offers isolation for receivers and adjacent electronics by reducing transmitted vibration. The gold foam layer cushions the receiver and supports more consistent operation of signal-critical components in electric and nitro RC setups.
Designed as a universal accessory rather than a vehicle-specific part, it fits well in compact bays, dedicated receiver pods, or small chassis hollows. The wrap can be modified slightly to suit different receiver footprints without structural changes to the chassis.
To fit, wrap the receiver in the foam, place it in the preferred bay, and secure using light adhesive pads, hook-and-loop fastener, or a small tie to prevent movement. As a passive component the wrap reduces mechanical vibration reaching the receiver, which can improve radio stability when the chassis flexes or the suspension works hard.
Best practice is to use the wrap alongside correct receiver mounting and tidy cable routing to maximise isolation benefits while keeping antenna position and ground connections correct.
