With roboRIO you have a variety of mounting options, so use the one that best suits your installation.

Meanwhile I'll keep an eye out for popped inserts - thanks for the report!
We are pretty skilled at breaking things in interesting ways. Next time we pull it off the robot we'll take photos of the missing thread inserts and how we were mounting it.
