Why Upgrade to Active Motor Cooling?
RC motors generate significant heat during high-performance runs. Without adequate cooling, excess heat can shorten motor lifespan and reduce efficiency over time. An active cooling solution — combining a metal heat sink with a powered fan — helps maintain safer operating temperatures, so your RC car stays on the track longer and performs at its best.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which RC motors and car scales is this heat sink and cooling fan compatible with?
A: This RC motor heat sink with 5V cooling fan is compatible with 370, 380, 390, 2838, 2858, and 2845 brushless and standard motors, designed to fit 1/14, 1/16, and 1/18 scale RC cars. Always verify your specific motor diameter before purchasing.
Q: What is the RC motor heat sink made of, and how does the cooling fan work?
A: The heat sink is constructed from durable metal (aluminum alloy) with a finned design that draws heat away from the motor surface. The integrated 5V cooling fan actively moves air across these fins, further accelerating heat dissipation to help keep your motor at stable operating temperatures during intense use.
Q: Is this RC motor cooling fan easy to install?
A: Yes. The heat sink and fan assembly is designed for straightforward installation on compatible motors. It attaches securely to the motor casing, and the fan connects to a 5V power source within your RC car's electronics setup. No specialized tools are required for most installations.
