Default Running Xcelorin with no fan

Hi All

I am just installing my xcelorin esc in a B4 and it won't fit with the fan installed. I could lay the fan it on its side in front of the esc, but i wondered if needed it at all?. I am running the losi 6.5 motor with it and coupled with 2wd i wondered if the fan was not required. Can anyone advise?

Cheers

Dave

Couple of lads at my club run them with the fan mounted in front of the speedo, doesnt get hot at all... should be fine without the fan depending on your gearing

I've run one with no fan and a 6.5 for most of the season. No problems at all (touch wood).
