Looking for newbie knowledge or discussion on what you all have experienced. I have this motor on my Big Rock BLX. Really trying to not focus on how I power the cooling but in respect to cooling which is better heatsink or not.
This motor has silver rings around it I assume the rings are for releasing heat (??), is cooling better using the heat sink pictured that holds the fan? Or is cooling better using a Powerhobby fan motor mount to let the fan blow directly on the motor without heatsink?
Added info: After two runs on 3S, 80F day outside, motor temps at highest right now to date 140F
Motor: 3674, 2650kv
Current heatsink and fan and fan is powered separaetly
Using one of these on my Kraton EXB with two GC fans so would be no issue with one fan. Or, using no heatsink would this be better?
