What heat sink to use on Neu?

Most will still gear for about 40 so you should still be ok. On such an efficient motor a heatsink isn't so crucial. Try running without one first, if it gets to hot for your liking then get it.

Exactly what I've found out. Heck, I'm running an Aftershock, geared for about 47 MPH on 6S with the Castle 2200Kv and it doesn't want to get hot. I really doubt you'll have any problem with your setup.

Check this out.This will fit all 15 series diameter but you will have to trim the length

That is a nice looking unit too, thanks for the link. I will def. consider that one is I have heat issues in the race. Not to mention the "bling" factor

sorry for 2 posts in a row

hey,

I am currently seeking a heatsink for my loxi xcelorin motor (39mm diam.), I have found out that the losi-heatsink fits neu motors:

if you use a heatsink, use some thermal-paste. I used a novak HV heatsink on a 88mm long inrunner, and it lowered the temps definately (fits VERY tight and is heavy), for a good thermal transfer I use thermal paste. but in the end, the motor was a bit crappy...

of course, gearing etc. has to be right etc, furthermore, neu motors are top of the shelf stuff and are very efficient. but under racing conditions at high temperatures it could make sense.
