Powerhobby 40mm Aluminum Tornado High Speed HV RC Cooling Fan Purple

Powerhobby 40mm Aluminum Tornado High Speed HV Cooling Fan

Description

Help keep your RC motor or electronic speed controller operating at a more controlled temperature with the PowerHobby 40mm Aluminum Tornado High-Speed HV Cooling Fan. Designed for high-performance RC applications, this powerful fan delivers increased airflow to help reduce heat buildup during extended runs, racing, aggressive bashing, speed runs, crawling, and other demanding driving conditions.

The full aluminum housing does more than provide a clean, upgraded appearance. Its large surface area can also help draw heat away from the mounting area, allowing the fan housing to function as an additional heatsink when installed directly onto a compatible ESC, motor mount, or cooling bracket.

The aluminum casing also provides added protection around the fan blades, helping reduce the chance of damage from light debris or accidental contact. With a wide 5V to 8.5V operating range, the fan can be used with many compatible receivers, external BEC systems, ESC fan ports, and regulated auxiliary power supplies.

Its universal 40mm size makes it suitable for many 1/12, 1/10, 1/8, and 1/5-scale RC vehicles. The purple aluminum finish adds a custom appearance to your motor or ESC cooling setup.

Fitment

This is a universal-fit cooling fan intended for RC vehicles with sufficient installation space and a compatible 40mm fan mounting location.

Suitable applications may include:

• 1/12-scale RC cars
• 1/10-scale touring cars
• 1/10-scale drift cars
• 1/10-scale buggies and trucks
• 1/8-scale buggies and truggies
• 1/8-scale monster trucks
• 1/7-scale speed-run vehicles
• 1/5-scale electric RC vehicles
• Brushless motor cooling systems
• Electronic speed controller cooling systems
• Custom RC electronics installations

Fitment depends on the available mounting space, mounting-hole arrangement, connector type, and power source. Before ordering, measure the intended installation area and verify that the 40 × 40 × 10mm fan will fit without contacting the body, battery, motor wires, drivetrain, or suspension components.

Installation Notes

Disconnect the vehicle battery before installing or servicing the cooling fan. Secure the fan to a compatible motor mount, ESC bracket, heatsink, or custom mounting location using the included hardware.

Position the fan so that airflow is directed toward the motor, ESC, or electronic component that requires cooling. Make sure the intake and exhaust sides of the fan are not blocked by the body, battery tray, wiring, or other electronics.

Route the 180mm wire away from the motor shaft, pinion gear, spur gear, driveshafts, suspension components, and other moving parts. Secure loose wiring with clips or cable ties before operating the vehicle.

Connect the fan only to a compatible regulated power source between 5V and 8.5V. Verify connector compatibility, polarity, voltage, and available current before applying power. Do not connect the fan directly to a power source exceeding 8.5V.
