Heatsink is up and we have a handful ready to ship. These are machined inhouse and come with high CFM fans. There is a 1/4"-20 hole machined on the side allowing them to be mounted directly to most camera/video equipment tripods.
This is our test setup we’ve been using for a few months. The heatsink is only needed for the VH-109/WCP-1538 in AP Mode when used at home. This is currently left on 24/7 and the students in the offseason practice 3-4 days a week with no issues. The setup doesn’t have heat transfer tape between the heatsink and the radio. This is an optional step to further help with cooling.
The power for the fans comes from the weidmuller port, we use the poe adapter to power the radio itself. From our experience you do not need the heatsink for the radio on the robot side even with extended practice.
What happens if you don’t use a heatsink on the ap mode? It just hits a temp limit and throttles during heavy/long practice times. The VH-113 has the heatsink + fan built in IIRC.
