ShareGoo Glass Fibre Shock Absorber Board Anti-vibration Damping Plate Mount for APM2.6 APM2.8 Pixhawk PX4 Flight Controller

I have a number of Pixhawk 1s from around 2014 and the vibration pads had melted into green goo from them being stored in my garage. Since I needed just one Pixhawk 1 for a project, I purchased this shock absorber board to mount the Pixhawk 1 on a vehicle chassis and isolate it from road vibrations. The mounting holes for the vibration dampers were slightly smaller in the bottom plate than in the top plate so I used a ream to enlarge them to the same size as the top plate. Installing the vibration dampers in their respective holes was a piece of cake. I looped a long piece of 22 awg wire sequentially through each of the holes, placed the loop of wire over the groove in one end of each vibration damper, and used the wire to pull the grooved end of each vibration damper into its respective mounting hole. Works for both the top and bottom plates. This plate works well isolating the Pixhawk 1's IMU from vehicle vibration as it is intended to do.

I mounted my Pixhawk 6x flight controller on this and flew a test flight. The vibration telemetry file showed a dramatic improvement but the drone seemed to fly about the same, and my camera video was still shaky with high zoom.

Dampens out all the vibrations very good product

Fits my Pixhawk perfectly

This flight controller vibration dampener could have been designed a little better. The upper and lower does not line up the holes perfectly. We did a little drilling ourselves to realign everything and after that the robber vibration dampeners lined up correctly and works great.
