Default Best Motor Fan?

In your opinion, what is the best motor fan I can get for my electric touring car?

I currently have a cheap Hobbyking heatsink/fan setup, but I'm sure there are better ones out there.

yes, there are many threads on this,
..but would add that in my experience the "3Racing" fans are the worst ...they just don't push that much air and are useless (that is my opinion of course).

I like the Yeah Racing ones for the price and what they do.

I wasn't familiar with WTF fans and as I read this thread, I realized it is not THE "WTF" but a company name.... haha..;;

R1 fan or superior hobbies fan. They have proven to be reliable, powerful, and made to run on 7.4v. The yeah racing fan is okay but nothing special.

I know a few people who had reliability issues with their wtf fans.

I love the R1 fans, though it seems they are impossible to get these days. I hope we see some more hit the shelves soon.

No manufacturer is prefect. I'd recommend anyone who has had issues to reach out to the local distributor.
