TCS - Thermal Cooling System for brushed motors in RC 1-10th scale electric cars

 6. Conclusion

This first version of the TCS has brought a lot of talk with it, and our tests have validated its efficiency in terms of motor cooling.

Also, a lot of good racing drivers have already started to use it.
But this first version is not free of faults and several points of improvement should be considered for the next versions :
- replace the motor plate with a clamp-/ring-style cooling element (like those on the the ventirads) which will improve and centralise the contact surface to the motor
- provide a ventilator to cool the radiator and make its positioning easier
- provide cooling paste to improve the heat exchange between motor and TCS

Also remember that the results we obtained with the TCS in our tests only apply to our configuration. A different installation/mounting on the same car or on another car would have given different results.
These tests have had the goal of verifying the capacity of the TCS to cool our motors.
And even though in our tests we have not seen the 40% of temperature gain as announced by the manufacturer (who did not precise if this is an average value or a single measurement or with which type of installation these results were obtained) we think that after an optimisation of our installation, it would have been possible to gain even more degrees.

Finally, take note that a brushless version of the TCS was announced (with a cooling plate for the ESC added to the bundle) as well as a version for 1/8th gas buggies. [thermique means gas engine, 1/18 must be a mistake ?]

To conclude, we especially reproach the high price of the TCS, which is about 150€, as opposed to classic solutions as the ventirads which are of course less effective but also a lot cheaper. Our second reproach is that it is not compatible with the constrained chassis of most of today’s 4x4 1/10th buggies.

Points + Points -

- Parts and fabrication quality

- Efficiency
- Complete Bundle
- Originality
- Weight, consumation
- Price
- Exclusivity
- Preparation of the installation
- Delicate placement of the radiator
- Compatibility not guaranteed

Thanks to Jean François for supplying us with the temperature gun and for helping us during our tests.
