Every boat cooling jacket I have ever seen allows the water to come in contact with the outside case of the motor. I have not seen one that will work with a finned neu, but they do make them for smooth can neu motors.

Would you really want the added weight and current pull of a water cooling system? Resovoir, pump,radiator,fan and lines? Plus the risk of leakage all over your electronics, not to mention having to keep up with making sure you have clean water, no corrosion or orgranisms. You probably could use a cpu water block for the esc to replace the fan and heatsink. But if your pump were to fail, you probably wouldn't know until it was too late.

Yes, but 4 and 6 pole motors are taking over and for a good reason.

I think the ones made for Traxxas will be black and the Castle ones will be green.

I used a "bottom" line.

IŽll really like to see a motor can with heat pipes. Even if they are heavier than a simple heatsink, at least the are pasive devices.

You shouldn't need heatpipes, water cooling, or even fans though. If your motor is running too hot there are issues in your setup. It could be gearing, binding, poor quality motor, etc. but a proper setup will not overheat. Before the unfortunate frying of my Neu, the hottest I could get it was 145F which is fine considering how long I ran it, how hard I ran it, and it was too high of KV for my application.
All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.

not if you are running high voltage! 2poles can take high voltage better than 4poles. Now 4 poles are better for 6s and under 2poles are going to have higher rpm
