Re: CIM motor heatsink

another option is find a common heatsink and bend it to a 2.5"diameter.
On our robot we had a fp motor getting rather toasty so we took the stock heatsink from a students quadcore processor and easily modified it to slide over the motor with a fan mounted on it, it works quite nicely
