Mounting the controller

Post by Chaz »

Sorry, had posted in the wrong section.

Can I mount the controller through the 4 bolts without isolating the 4 mount points? In other words, is screwing the board into aluminium (with a cover to shield the back pins) OK? Thanks.

Thanks, but is it OK for those metal rings (where it mounts) to be connected electrically to the frame? Ive seen a few pics / vids, I looks OK but just want to be sure.

Yes. That is what they ("those metal rings") are there for.
