w4ien OFFLINE Posts: 3	This may be in the manual but I was wondering if there is a way to set the temperature that the fan turns on for the DX. I would like to have the fan cut on to keep the temperature below 32 degrees. Any help would really be appreciated.

John-KC2QMA OFFLINE Posts: 66 Thank you received: 69	I too would like more fan speed control for the MB1. I hope they can add more fan control to ESDRv3 in the future. I would just connect 12v direct to a fan and just have it run all the time. Anyway just a thought.

John-KC2QMA OFFLINE Posts: 66 Thank you received: 69	Yes that would be the quietest and most efficient method. But I think using Vodka for the coolant would be appropriate

Hugo45 OFFLINE Posts: 2	Hello everybody, Fan control, larger fans and more power and probably noisier, water radiator and the devil to four, there is no need for it colleagues ... !!! Just put a few feet higher, from 10mm to 15mm for the Sun2DX, it is no more than 38ºC - 43ºC. 73´s to all ... !!!
