Sometimes the simple answer is overlooked...
Cooling something that heats up like a CPU can be difficult without using a fan. Not too many options to choose from with exsisting technologies and still have a lightweight system.

Passive cooling: requires a big, heavy heatsink for the amount of heat we need to move.
Solid state cooling: Extra drain on the battery, condensation problems, still requires a heatsink and fan
Water cooling: well....
Is it possible to run Mamba Max systems in parallel to drive 1 motor?

Maybe a more efficient controller with very little energy lost as heat?
