On my X5 the speedo it taped on its side so the bottom is on the tranny tunnel and the GTB stickered side faces down, the fan then sits alongside, flowing onto the top of the speedo. I believe (but take no responsibility for) that the 25mm 7.2V fan will work fine as long as it it mounted directly on top as it works perfect for me how I have it. I’ll try to take a pic and host it tonight.
I have noted, even when on bonded my Novak runs much cooler than some of the lads at York with equivalent LRP systems. That said they don’t run fans (or heat sinks some of them) so it’s no surprise. That way I have both cars set up now I expect to be able to run any motor in either car and never even have to think about thermal issues ever again even in the summer (sintered rotors).
On the weekend I ran 19*78, but believe Secret Agent Barton was on either a 17 or 18 84 on his B4 and he won the event! I will experiment with gearing down even further but need to get some other Losi spurs for the X6.
