Default Speed Passion Reventon Pro fan or no fan?
Just setting up my cougar SV2 after not racing for 15 years, things have changed! Everything seems a tight fit and I wanted to know how critical it is using the fan with the esc? I notice some ecs's don't have fans. I'm using a speed passion reventon pro. Thoughts please......

What motor are you running, how long are your stints and any vent holes?
The reventon pro should be ok without a fan on a 2wd, with a bit of airflow and a reasonable motor...

I'm running a 7.5t speed passion motor, esc right at the front with good air flow. I assume with the heat cut off the worst case is it will cut off?

if you can fit a fan, fit it.. and forget about it. Better safe than sorry!

i had the same combo past summer in my RB-6 and even with the fan on , after 7 min of driving the ESC turns up to safetymode, heatprotection! so i would defenitly run it always with the fan.
