So the guy at my hobby store recommended when you have the motor out of the motor mount to rotate it 90° this will put the wires coming out more to the side and away from the heat sink. I did this on mine and it looks great.
@@pierrelucbelanger4798 so a fan for the ESC is going to be a bit different that than a fan on the motor heatsink like I did in this video. I don’t think screwing directly into the ESC heatsink fins would work very good because they are also a harder type of metal where as the motor heatsink was aluminum and easy for the screws to bite into. Best bet might be to buy an ESC heatsink fan that has the clip on bracket
Honestly they’re doing quite well and I’d buy more especially because of their price point. If you’re about performance I did notice that my old max amps 3s seemed more punchy and a tad faster, but the Zee are great for cheap bashing or crawling batteries

Good to know, thanks!
Thanks. My brother is getting a heat sink and fan for his Slash 4X4 VXL’s motor today and this was useful for us to know how to install it.
Glad I could help!
can you screw the fan directly in the slots of the heatsink or is there predrilles holes / bracket to it
They screw directly into the heatsink fins, no pre drilled holes
@@rustlervxl09 thanks for the reply ! ive got 2 fans on the way but my esc doesnt have pilot holes ! appreciate you
would you happen to know what size screws u used ! pretty new to rc

What is that netting around the car for and where can it be found?
How do you like the zee lipos?

Does this fit on the slash ultimate?
yes, it fits it.
Great video. Is that the slash you got from Mudguy? Its Still in good shape. It's a shame he quit making content😂
Thanks! The slash was from 115Chandler1 and Mudguyrc gave me the LCG kit for it. Yea it’s shame Mudguyrc made good videos to.
