Re: Rules: Velcroing Electronics
Before using too much Velcro around sensitive electronics, you might want to do some investigations into how much static electricity builds up in it each time you pull the Velcro apart.
Last year we used Velcro to hold our gyro in place and I we always had unpredictable results with that gyro. It may not have been the Velcro, but I became suspicious after a while. I did find some info online that warn people flying model rockets to not Velcro in their altimeters and other instruments.
