RCExcel Ignition Module
 
Does an RCExcel ignition get hot/warm enough to require cooling air during normal operations? (DLE35RA)
On my newest build I currently have it in a wedge shaped box underneath the motor box. Sorry no picture right now as there are lots of screws and panels to remove just for that.
Also, will double-stick tape keep it in place, at least until I can figure a way to drill some holes so I can use a couple of ZIP ties?
TIA.

In my experience, no cooling air is necessary. Mine are typically wrapped in foam and are behind the firewall. Most flights are 10 minutes or so and no adverse reaction noticed.

If mine are located ahead of the firewall, it would definitely have zip ties securing it.
