The Muchmore ones work great for me. I've been using the 25mm with the leads cut and soldered directly to the motor. Working well for a year.

Shouldn't be that difficult, or expensive.

That is the one I use in two different cars for over a year with no problems. The 25mmx25mm is much sturdier than the 30x30 fan, more airflow too IMO.

only way to run that fan and have it last. Hook it to the battery or esc and it'll fry within minutes...... and if I remember correctly it doesn't run well anyway, only pulses at a very slow speed

I believe that ROAR limits fans to 1 30x30mm fan for the motor. 40x40 not ROAR race legal in the US.
