Well like Brian said, it helps dissipate the heat. I read that thread and wondered. At our indoor racing one of the guys busted his fan on his gtb, he couldn't stop thermalling after that. I saw another esc go up in smoke, mamba, and was curious. I figured it was worth a try and so far it has proved worthy enough a few other guys are now going to do the same.

I did the case mod on my TTR S3 conversion and frankly I didn't like the mess it leaves of the packaging. Add to that a fan is delicate. We push the 8th scales a lot. And I just had a cpu fan and power supply fan go and overheated my computer so not thrilled with fans right now hehe.
