Notorious V5 notorious motor cooling?

[Coconutcasanova]

I'm trying to see if anyone can recommend me a good motor heatsink and cooling fan combo for the 6s notorious v5.

If it runs spectrum or same diameter motor I'd recommend these. They snap right in place and come with a harness/ splitter

Get this!! The power hobby fan setup is $22, but it comes with plastic fans that break. The NHX fans have aluminum frames with a carbon fiber cover to keep debris from hitting the fans.

Its a whopping $27 but definitely a quality part. The CF is also real

Thank you!! There are so damn many different cooling systems out there to choose from. My buddy likes his power hobby, but I wanted something nice, like the NHX that you recommended.

Sweet. I just ordered one of these for my typhon 6s. As well as a clamp mount for 40mm fan

I can also say that the powerhobby is nice BUT both my fans went kaput after a couple runs. They did send me 2 new ones without question, but I'm afraid they will go again so the NHX fans are in my cart lol

Be careful how you mount the fans. The wires are super thin and get cut into easily and I think that's why my fans went bye bye lol. This time I wrapped them in electrical tape to protect them from debris

Or did you mean the NHX fans lol?

The NHX fans, my power hobby fans broke easily as well. Then I upgraded to the aluminum fans, but they still broke because I could not get the one to stay completely flush on the mount, so when I would land it would slap down and break.

Do you ziptie the heat sink to the motor?

Nope no need it literally snaps to the motor pretty solid. Also on my kraton it has the rollover bar to stop the thing rotating with vibration and hitting any moving parts etc.

 

[olds97_lss]

Nice that it fits those alloy framed 30mm fans without having to modify the fans... that was the issue I had with the powerhobby/yeah racing one. I think I'd still put at least one fat ziptie in the middle, just for peace of mind.

On one, I used a sander to grind down the edges of the fans where they meet. That was a pain.

On my others, I elongated the holes on all 4 fans, also annoying, but less so.

My buddy's power hobby fans have gone out atleast 2 times that I know of. Power hobby is cool, but broken parts get annoying after a couple times.

So to mount the nhx to the motor you push it straight down onto the can? If so imma thermal paste mount it on because it can only help

 

[mr_nom_noms_]

Thats what I did and its been fine for about 6 packs. The thermal paste won't do any harm like you say. I've been getting grass and twigs into my fans and they are still ripping!

It'll certainly help temps. It'll also attract dirt, don'tcha think?

Does it not harden up?
