These 34x34x16mm fans easily move twice the amount of air at the same voltage (6v). Massive difference. They sound really good as well, you get a proper whooshing noise! lol Sorted.

B intersting to see the difference now u fitted these Yes I like to keep an eye on the temps so will be interesting to see the difference. I'm currently running them at 6v and even at this voltage you can really feel the air being forced out of the heatsink now. Must be mental at 8.4v! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just this as far as I know...https://traxxas.com/products/parts/transmitters/6511tqitraxxaslinkmodule Voltage and temp sensors already installed, have to buy GPS and rpm. Not worth it imo.

Cut out the plastic pole supports (as the holes don't quite match up) to make a nice flat surface, tiny bit of shoe goo to hold in place. Job done.

Hegs44 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 An outstanding couple of hours bashing up the beach at Lancing. I had the Xmaxx chewing up the stones. My 6 yr old running the Losi on 3s. His driving skills getting better everyday. He's even getting airtime. Question. The Xmaxxheat sink around motor is loose. How is this fixed to the motor ? Should I use paste ? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hegs44 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Huge day of bashing on the coast. Got too confident with some large air, turned into 30mph spinning wheel straight into the English Channel. Upside down submerged for about 2 mins by the time I got to it. I'm going through drying out protocol but think a short already burnt through. Any expert opinions ?!
