This 3D-printed fan duct is specifically designed for 550 RC motors (as used in 1:10 RC cars). It provides targeted motor cooling, extending lifespan and performance during intensive use.
The design incorporates a mount for a 30x30 mm fan (e.g., DC 3010, 12V), directly positioned above the motor. The duct efficiently directs airflow across the motor housing, significantly reducing temperatures during continuous operation
and simultaneously protecting against dust and debris.
Features:
- Suitable for common 540/550 RC motors
- Optimized for 30mm fans (4x M3 screws)
- Compact and lightweight design
- No support structure needed during printing
- Mounting via heat-set inserts or standard nuts from the underside
- Tested in RC racing (see images)
Recommended Print Settings:
- Material: PETG or ABS (for temperature resistance)
