Mini-Z AWD PCB shroud with integrated heatsink AWD-36 by 3Racing  [AWD-36]

Precision PCB shroud with heatsink

This PCB shroud is produced for Kyosho Mini-Z AWD models and carries the AWD-36 designation. It merges a protective cover with an integral heatsink to assist with thermal management during extended running and set-up work.

Functionally the shroud shields the board from debris and incidental contact while conducting heat away from sensitive parts. It is suitable for Mini-Z AWD chassis, including MR-03 AWD variants cited in the product title.

Installation is straightforward for competent Mini-Z builders: remove the body or access panel to access the PCB, align the shroud with the board mounting points and secure using the existing fixing points or any supplied screws. No changes to motor, ESC or servo units are normally required, but confirm clearance around connectors and the antenna before final tightening.

As a tuning aid this cover helps maintain more consistent PCB temperatures between runs, reducing thermal drift in electronics where compact airflow limits cooling and multiple heats are typical.
