I was running my T3S V3 hard in tall grass and the motor temps shot up (to be expected). I poked around and noticed that the Typhon body basically rests on the stock motor fan, restricting most of the airflow. The fan blows well without the body but less with the body.

Has anyone found a clever workaround?

Raise the rear body posts to allow more space above the fan
 
I've been thinking about venting the body and installing a fan in the shell.
 
Tall grass is a tough one. Small motor will not handle it....fan or not In my opinion. Not many RC’s can go tall grass....maybe the 6s outcast with lower gearing and I’m sure the 8s rigs would make short work of any grass. It’s just too much resistance
Maybe just get a lawn mower.....lol
