I think you will. From my experience a heatsink is pretty much needed on the quark in any 1/8 or MT application. Even if its not absolutely necessary it will for sure help keep you expensive ESC investment cooler and healthier.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...

I dont think you will hurt anything by trying it out. Just pay attention to the esc temps and you should be fine. The best place to monitor the Quark temp is right where the motor wires come out of the esc.
