5S used to be a bit hot or miss on this - heat sinking will depend on the condition of the internal thermal pads - They used to separate from the FETS and stop conducting heat - mike used to make a kit for modding them.

5s works fine.. 6s fully charged i heard caused problems. not sure if there was a fix for that or not. to get it to run faster, you can replace the thermal pad with a copper shim, w/ thermal epoxy.

sorry, my quark had a thermal pad holding the fets to the case. it's a few years old though, so I'm not sure if they changed it.

hold on, i'll try and find you my write up.

Mine never had issues out of maybe 10 packs running a 1515 2.5D on 6s, and about 15 minutes with a 1515 1y. I had the rcm quark heatsink and a 40mm novak fan, no caps or internal mods.

I guess i have been lucky, to have no problems with mine yet. Mine will cogg slightly on a 6s fresh off the charger, however, if you let the battery set for a day or two, mine works without incident. I prefer 5s with mine though. Current setup is, Neu 1515/2.5d/f, Quark 125, 4-5s lipo, G-Emaxx tranny w/strobe 51/20 through 1/8 diffs in a Gorilla revo. It runs maybe 20* above whatever the temp is outside, no matter how hard i run it. I love this ESC


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise

If that was directed at me, I don't run fans. I'm a fan buster like BrianG
