800kv motor cooling setup - Would like to know what others are using. Thank you!

[RoodahRC]

Hello - I'm installing an 800kv motor into my K8s and cooling solutions do not appear to be plentiful. I've thought briefly about the possibility of utilizing my 1250kv cooling setup, but I don't think that is realistic.

Your input is greatly appreciated - Thank you

Use a fan mount and fan. Don’t put a heat sink on it. Look at the Powerhobby PHmount04 …..works great. You can mount one or two fans on it.

I just put the PH mount listed above with 2 thin 40mm fans on mine. Haven't ran it yet as they just arrived Monday.

Works great. Motor temps down by 40 degrees. Used bigger zipped to mount to motor. Using leopard 58mm motor. Fans are awesome also. Fan blades do break tho but so does every other fan I run also. Part of playing.

Here’s my set up, works great these fans don’t break they have a metal frame which protects the blades

Then Velcro strap around the motor and shroud to hold it all together.

Can you tell me more about the wire you have over top of the fans. They look like miniature stove top burners on a gas range.

Thanks!

I'm currently waiting on 2x 3D printed parts for cooling.

An inlet duct drawing air to and past the motor and an outlet duct.

I’ve stopped running fan covers on my rigs with great success so far. It was an experiment and I’ll report that no debris gets caught between the blades and cover…because there is no cover….…my fans are lasting longer.
