This heatsink is a purpose-built accessory for the Kyosho Mini Inferno ESC compartment, identified as 3Racing MIF-020/OR/WO in an orange woven finish. It offers an increased thermal mass and surface area to aid passive dissipation where the original ESC housing is compact.
Intended compatibility is with Mini Inferno variants; installers must verify screw patterns and spatial clearance prior to fitting to other platforms.
Installation procedure: access the ESC by removing the body and any obstructing components, secure the heatsink using the ESC's existing mounting points or retained fasteners, and confirm there is no contact with wiring or drivetrain parts. Apply torque evenly to avoid deformation of plastic mounts.
Operational effect: the added surface area lowers steady-state ESC temperatures under intermittent load, contributing to more consistent ESC behaviour during short competitive sessions. Note this is a passive modification and should be integrated into a broader cooling strategy including motor selection and airflow routing for optimal results.
Service guidance: routinely inspect mounting integrity, verify wire clearance after installation, and remove dust or contaminants that could impair thermal transfer.
