Default Engines

I'm not sure why there is not a dedicated section for just engines.


But I use to make water cooled copper tubing and small pump for when I use to modify power wheels for my kids back in the day when I was running 24v or 36 through them.

It worked and kept them from burning up to get more speed out of them, lasted for over a year.


I wondered if anyone has done something like this on a smaller scale for there nitro engines ? and if so what they used ?

Or how many have used extra small hollow copper tubing around the cooling fins for more cooling ?

No that's inline a bigger head, is providing more cooling with a bigger heat sink.

I did not know there were bigger heads for my engines, that I have.

the fs-18 and the o.s. max .18.

I was looking even at the idea of a 1 or 2 inch electric fan to blow air into or away from the engine.

It's more aobut looking and seeing hwo have tried this and what the temp reading was with doing it and certainly a bigger head, would to me also have the temps down.
