Team Zombie new concept 40mm Duct Cooling Fan

In the latest addition to its extensive offering of cooling fans, Team Zombie claims it has made a revolutionary breakthrough in the cooling concepts of it all new 40mm fan.  Traditional fan cooling is limited by not having enough fresh air within the touring car body, not enough clearance for the fan to function to its full potential and not having the shape to generates the thrust to cool the motor’s surface evenly. now Team Zombie has the breakthrough on all these cooling limitation by created a revolutionary cooling system as it vacuums fresh air from the side of the chassis to supply the fan blade to cool the motor and the shroud casing providing even cooling on the motor’s surface with 10 grams+ of thrust.

Team Zombie 30mm Hollow Evolution cooling system

Coming from Team Zombie is their new 30mm Hollow Evolution cooling system for electric touring cars. Building on the success of the 40mm system, the new 30mm variant weighs in at 13g+ and complies with ROAR regulations. Its static wind pressure reaches 10g+ to provide more cooling which will lower the motor’s operation temperatures, ensuring less power fading towards the end of a run. The motor cooler is constructed from high-quality materials and it fits most 1/10th scale competition touring cars.

Team Zombie Evo 540-class brushless motor

Team Zombie have introduced their new Evo 540-size brushless motor. It features a unique 1-piece aluminium can that covers most of the stator, however it leaves open the large alloy insulator which ensures improved overall cooling. The endbell also sports cooling openings to further improve airflow through the can especially when used in 4WD off-road classes. A new stator design optimised the power curve, making it more linear which is essential for a more connected throttle feeling. The motor weighs in at around 150g, making it not the lightest, however with modern mid-motor touring cars being in need of weight in around the electronics area, it allows to achieve a balanced weight bias easier. Other features include 2mm thick ultra-low resistance solder tabs as well as high-precision ball bearings. The motor will become available in popular stock windings such as 13.5T and 17.5T.
