Receiver Shock and Vibration Pad

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.

Yes. The material is suitable for both electric and nitro installations; ensure the foam does not contact hot exhaust components or leaking fuel which could degrade performance.
Longevity depends on environmental exposure and handling; under normal conditions the foam provides reliable isolation for many sessions, but inspect for compression or surface breakdown and replace when effectiveness declines.
Allow access to bind ports and connectors when fitting the wrap. Trim openings if necessary so you can access ports without removing the receiver from its isolation sleeve.
