Havoc Low Profile Heatsink?

Post by soniccj5 »

Does anyone know if the low profile heat sink for the Havoc 1s and 2s will fit the Havoc speed controller included with the Havoc 10.5 Spec combination?

Thanks,

It will fit, I've never taken the heatsink off my Havoc so I don't know if there's any special tricks to doing it though.

Installed the heatsink on Monday without any issues.

My body fits without having to move the speed controller. The stock heat sink already scratched off some paint :?

I have not been able to try it yet. I hope to give it a run in the next couple weeks.

I had the low profile on 1/12th scale but couldn't get a good wiring run and the plug to the receiver sat so high that it had to be in the center of the car. Because of this and the beer can size capacitors I took the whole thing off and put it on my RC10L. No problems overheating with a 13.5.
