Thanks you for your answer, any idea if the support have shipped the fan to me? I had no new from them.

I already told you one was dispatched. No reason for support to contact you further.

[QUOTE=Team Pink;13241837]Saw your post on this thread and the B5M thread as well. Here is the RSX all wired up in my B5M.


Thanks! Looks good! Your layout is what i had in mind!

Is the capacitor that came with my rsx required? I'm running my rsx with my 5.5 gen2 In a 22-4. If it is required will the schuur speed dual capicator work or do I need to use the Tekin capicator?

Yes the cap is required and I would only run the Tekin cap.

I ran my RSX in my Yokomo 4wd all weekend with a ramped 8.5 against other 5.5 and 6.5 motors and wasnt down on power on the straight and was smooth on the infield and never saw more than 2 lights all weekend during racing. I hit 3 lights once during a long practice session. I feel that some people may have a heavier throttle finger than others therefore the same settings offer different results. I have a 17.5 throttle finger as I'm new to 4wd mod. Use others settings as a starting point and adjust yo your driving style.

True, im pretty hard on throttle, our track is medium with allot of 180 and stretch, I am pretty sure when the fan will be on my RSX I wont have temp problem anymore.

You'd be surprised how cool it all runs. I was running my new 22-4 with a 6.5 all weekend without a fan and only seeing 4 led's once i dumped the pack. Considering there's NO airflow in the stock 22-4 body I'd say that's more than fine.

People that race with me often know I will not be pulled down the straight away

I always suggest running it without the fan for however long your mains are, full race pace. Pull it and check the led's showing temp. If you're 4 led's or lower, no fan required.

Randy, I have been running my rsx with a fan since buying it. Will I see any significant improvement if I took it off? I run indoors and outdoors with my 22-4 on a 6.5 gen2 tekin.

I still do not understand why my temps gun was getting a temps of 147 on the heat sink, maybe my gun is not well calibrate. Thanks you for your help Randy.

I've Been running an rs pro in my 22-4 with a gen2 6.5 and speedo temps were only about 160 f just picked up the rsx and can't wait to get this installed

I'm not sure you'll see any "improvement" per se but I see no reason to add the weight to the car if it's not needed. The heatsink design is very effective at dissipating heat on it's own. If there's even the smallest amount of airflow across those fins it's pretty amazing how cool the unit can run.

147 on the outside of the esc still isn't a temperature I'd worry about in the slightest to be honest.

That's my line

What's your opinion on my question above about the capacitor? Thanks

Yes the capacitor is required. Tekin suggest 2 capacitor, the first one is 16V 330uf (TT3520) and the second one is 16V 1000uf (TT3522). I currently use the 330uf with no problems.
