Am I supposed to mount the fuses just anywhere in the circuit or just past the negative pole? In my setup the 20A fuses are between the ESC and each of the two motors,* so polarity does not play a major role. When you reverse, you reverse polarity; there is no fixed negative and positive. Also, I like your fuses. They are handy and save you lots of space. What kind are they? I am using large fuse cases with large fuses for trucks. I like them, however they take up so much valuable space inside my light tanks. Chrys
* The Output current of the Sabertooth 2x25 is up to 25 A continuous per channel. What is the cost of your RS 80D ESC? It can draw up to 40A. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris. b" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "R/C Tank Combat" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, November 22, 2008 12:48 AM Subject: [TANKS] Re: fans on ESCs > > That is the stock fan that comes mounted on the RS80D, I would > strongly recommend adding fans to your ESC.
