Do you have any overheating concerns about the Talon SRXs being mounted on plastic instead of metal (no heatsink)? I'm new to the SRX and this looks very similar to our electronics this year so I was just having this conversation earlier this week with another mentor.

Thanks,
Thanks! I've been emphasizing service loops with the students.

We've been using this material for our electronics boards for a few years now with no heat problems. We make sure to give the board a little breathing room above and below when it's mounted so the components have some ventilation. The holes make mounting with zip ties easy, and it's non-conductive.
