how do i mount the quark on the rc-monster heatsink? - 05.15.2007, 06:28 PM

I wonder how do i mount it on the heatsink to my quark?
i see that i have to glue it to the heatsink.
I have driled som holes on the motor mount so the haetsink i stuck on the car, but witch whay is up? Should the fans be face up or face down?
And shold the fans blow on the heatsink or away from the heatsink?
And whar can i gat som fans that wil fit?


Sorry the bad english i'm from Norway

The heatsink has holes in the end that allow it to mount in the empty motor slot of the emaxx motor plate. You can use 2 40mm fans( check description to be certain) that should blow down onto the heat sink. Depending on how much space you have the quark can be ontop or underneath as it were, but the flat side of the heatsink needs to be facing the quark either way. As for attaching it- thermal tansfer paste and some long zipties seems to be the prefered method. You can get the fans from either ebay or a pc store- radioshack maybe too. Depending on the voltage of your setup go for either 5v fans or 12v fans, and tap them into the escs battery wires- near to the plug as possible is best I think.
