Ok, this one is for Brian G and his no fan Insignia.

Here is my solution to my feigao 7XL heating up. I got one of those cheapie 3R racing fan heatsink combos. Then I glued an 80MM computer fan to it and here it is. My flying emaxx. How is that for some Bling Bling.

I finally figured out why most of you guys dont run the feigao motors and everyone is running a nue. It doesnt matter what wind you get, what speed you set it for, gear up, gear down etc etc, you just cant keep the temps down. I geared pretty conservatively for 38mph and it still gets hot on pavement, 180 degrees after 10 min or so.

If you look closely I have 2 heatsinks and the fan is only glued to one. I dont know how well it will work, but its just too hot where I am at to not do this.

I have a feeling Mike is going to be contacting me on this one. I can see it now, RC-MOnster heat sinks and LED FAN combos. LOL.
