6.4 Cooling system

To avoid damages to the ClubSport Wheel Base V2
there is a well-managed cooling system integrated
to the hardware and the firmware.
6.4.1 Hardware measures
The ClubSport Wheel Base has two fans inside: The first
one is on the backside and carries out the hot air from the
inside of the ClubSport Wheel Base:
The second one is on the left hand side behind the side
plane and blows cool air into the ClubSport Wheel Base V2
(room temperature):
Additionally the motor has a big heat sink around with a huge
passive cooling surface to transport the motor heat away from
motor:
6.4.2 Automatic fans adjustment
The firmware provides different stages of fan control which are clearly defined
after intensive testing on the R&D lab.
When switching ON the ClubSport Wheel Base V2 the fans operate at maxi-
mum speed until calibration run is completed.
The operation speed of the fans is adjusted to the currently detected temper-
ature of the motor inside the ClubSport Wheel Base V2 and could even stop,
depending on used firmware version.
The temperature control is subject to change by firmware updates so that the
fans behaviour also could be changed.
