Extra Brushless Motor cooling - 02.17.2008, 05:43 PM

I tried my E maxx on 5S yesterday. It ran GREAT. Lots of power and temps were ok. Well at least for the first half of the pack.

Then the motor began to get hot. The longer I ran it, the hotter it got. It got hot enough I couldn't hold my hand on it, and at one point I could even smell it. UH OH.

I really like this setup on 5S. I noticed the motor mount gets as hot as the motor does. Being aluminum, it is pulling heat from the motor and also the slipper clutch assembly.

Here's my attempt at additional cooling. 2 - 25mm 5v fans @ 1.3cfm each. I will power this with 6 volt off the CC BEC.
