Cooling fan installation help

[DaveG35]

I'm thinking of installing a cooling fan for my ss5800 esc. I'm running it in a T3. Are they difficult to install? Is there one that is recommended?

I used a 25mm x 25mm fan from a local electronics store ($3.00). The install is so simple, if you call Novak support they will walk you thru it. All you do is pull the connector out of the ESC (one that runs between the reciever and the ESC), using a very small screw driver remove the black and red pins from the connector and lay the fan wires right on top of the pins and reinsert them into the connector. Then reinsert the connector into the ESC and your fan will run only when the ESC is powered on. I then used two small screws to secure the fan to the heatsinks on the ESC.

Not very difficult to install at all. I'm currently using a 25mm fan. I had a 30mm MuchMore fan on there and I find that the Reedy 25mm fan pushes more air. I threaded 4-40 threads into the heatsink and put a screw through it.
