Overview
The Castle Creations 1700 Series 40mm Motor Cooling Fan (011-0162-00) is a high-output cooling solution designed specifically for Castle 1700 series brushless motors (or any 46mm diameter motor). The fan plugs directly into a receiver port and mounts in seconds with two zip ties - giving you serious cooling capability with minimal installation hassle.
Maintaining motor temperature is critical for sustained high-power performance. The 1700 Series fan keeps your motor cooler during long runs, helping prevent thermal performance loss and extending motor life - especially in high-load 1/6 and 1/8 scale builds.
The fan is intended as supplemental cooling and should not be used to push a motor beyond its rated limits. If your setup is running hot, contact Castle tech support to dial in proper gearing.
