To be able to have fans, or even an enclosure would mean weight. We still have about 12 lbs to lose, after shaving 10-12 right quickly. We are considering lightening the air compressor with some holes...hey! now we don't need other fans!:)

If your using FPs - lose the plastic housing.

By locating the fans of the PWMs just below the motor in question, air can be directed over the motor. This is a pretty easy way to get 'free' cooling.

BTW, if your mototrs are so hot at the end of a match that you can't touch them, re-evaluate your design and tactics.

Does anyone know if you are allowed to have the pneumatic system spray some air over the motors?

ahecht 05-02-2002 22:33

I don't see why not. Are you talking about using the compressor to directly blow air over the motor, or just directing your exhaust?

Curtis Williams 06-02-2002 21:39

Just to blow air over the motor. Our current pneumatics dont use much air so why not use some of it to cool our motors if we get in a shoving match.
