Overview
Keep your Traxxas Velineon VXL-3 ESC running cool under heavy load with the Hot Racing Aluminum Heat Sink with High-Velocity Cooling Fan. This combo upgrade clamps directly onto the VXL-3 ESC, dramatically increasing surface area for heat dissipation while a high-velocity fan blows constant airflow over the cooling fins.
For drivers running high-power motors, big LiPo packs, or sustained high-speed runs, ESC heat is a major reliability concern. This kit drops ESC temperatures dramatically, extending ESC life, preventing thermal shutdowns, and delivering more consistent power output during long sessions.
Key Features
- Screw-secured aluminum heat sink clamps directly to VXL-3 ESC
- Increased surface area for superior heat dissipation
- Higher mounting position improves airflow access
- High-velocity cooling fan included
- Plug-and-play installation with VXL-3S ESC
Performance Benefits
- Significantly lower ESC operating temperatures
- Reduced risk of thermal shutdown during hard runs
- Extended ESC service life
- More consistent power delivery during sustained loads
Usage Notes
Compatible with the Traxxas Velineon VXL-3 / VXL-3S ESC. Plug the fan into the ESC's fan power lead. Keep the heat sink clear of debris during operation; periodically blow out dust with compressed air. Apply removable thread-locker on the clamp screws.
