I'm sold. Put it into production and I'll buy it.

SSSPCONCEPTS:

Would you rather have the flat bottom, so you can use RC-Monster heatsink/mount.

Would you rather have integral heatsink on bottom w/ mount screw holes on each end of case?


Also: Does anyone know the dimensions of the RC-Monster heatsink, the length?

Thanks

Mine is 84mm long.....the heatsink, you dirty minded people.

That design is looking pretty good, if it has a flat bottom then it would be good for mounting to the chassis of a 1/8th, but then if it had fins on the bottom and mounting holes on the end there would be one less thing for an e-maxx driver to buy. Personally I have the RC-Monster heatsink already, and I have a 1/8th that I will want to put the Quark in soon, so I like the flat bottomed version with screw holes underneath.

Geez, I was hearing that ppl would rather have integral heatsink on bottom? You will still be able to mount the bottom on anything, it is flat heatsink, no problem there.

I will see how much a heatsink bottom will cost, and one with flat bottom.

thanks Patrick

I like an integral design.

Yeah, me too. I think it's best keeping to one design, and integral is my middle name.

This is what an R/C MT esc should be with this heatsink, the Quark... even if S&T made the top set of FET's coupled to the chassis, that would be worlds better.

CAD program says the outside surface area is roughly 300cm2. That should do the trick. :017:

So maxxman, nieles, ssspconcepts, patrick, A4DTM, jhautz are you guys seriously interested in getting one for yourselves?

Again, the design is not to specs, I don't have my Quark back yet from S&T, so it's going to have to wait for it to get here.

Does anyone happen to know a free thermal simulator program that I could use on this case?
