Precision aluminium heatsink for MICRO-T layouts

This CNC-friendly aluminium motor heatsink plate is produced as a direct-fit upgrade for Team Losi MICRO-T, carried under part number MI-13/LB. The light blue anodised plate is intended to increase the motor case contact area and passive convective cooling to reduce thermal spikes in short duration runs.

The component replaces the stock motor plate without requiring changes to motor kv or gear ratio, simplifying chassis integration and preserving standard motor placement for accurate alignment and service access.

For optimized operation, ensure unobstructed airflow through the body shell and monitor motor temperature with a reliable sensor or IR thermometer during break-in and race cycles. Note that changes in motor cooling can alter ESC thermal profiles and motor timing characteristics so validate ESC limits after installation.

What are the thermal benefits of MI-13/LB?

By increasing exposed aluminium area, the plate improves passive heat transfer away from the motor housing, lowering short-term peak temperatures and aiding repeat sprint performance.

Does the plate require machining or shims?

No additional machining is expected for standard MICRO-T installations; confirm screw lengths and clearances, and use factory hardware unless otherwise specified.

Recommended setup checks after fitting?

Verify motor rotational clearance, inspect body-to-plate spacing under full steering lock, and run controlled temperature tests to compare ESC cutback and motor performance before and after fitting.
