      <description>For a drone ESC, the thermal pad&apos;s bond-line thickness and compression pressure determine interface resistance more than bulk conductivity alone. Define the gap and pressure window first, then select a pad that meets deflection force and thermal requirements.</description>

      <description>Choose cushioning around the module and its installed strain—not by foam color or hand feel. The correct part must control motion without disturbing alignment or optics.</description>
