Just discovered this product: Rapstrap
Ideal for when a normal cable tie may be too rigid for small delicate things, and/or you need a small amount of tension, ie; holding down a tiny 5.8 GHz VTX board, or a motor ESC on your quadcopter!

Re: Video: Rapstrap (bye bye cable ties!)
It does have uses but being of a softer material also limitations that need to be taken into account

Yes, it depends on the application.VK4TI wrote:It does have uses but being of a softer material also limitations that need to be taken into account
Here we see a Mobius camera mounted on top of a mini quad.
Noting the moongel in between, this offers a firm clamp, whilst offering some "give".
If you look closely here (black rapstrap over black ESC), you'll note the rapstraps holding down the speed controllers on the arms:
If over-tightened, a conventional cable tie would risk crushing the SMD components under the ESC heatshrink cover.
If under-tightened, a conventional cable would be useless (and therefore pointless).
Conventional cable management applications aside, having some elasticity in a cable tie can be useful.

Now for some bondage!
