A system and kit for dissipating heat generated by a motor assembly and methods for manufacturing and using same. The motor assembly includes a housing that defines an internal chamber. The internal chamber communicates with an air inlet and an air outlet each being formed in the housing, and can at least partially receive motor inner workings. A pump assembly can be included in the internal chamber for generating an air flow during operation of the motor assembly. The pump assembly can draw air into the internal chamber via the air inlet, generating an air flow within the internal chamber. The air drawn into the internal chamber is applied to the motor inner workings, and the air heated by the motor inner workings is expelled from the internal chamber via the air outlet. Thereby, the air flow advantageously can cool the motor assembly as the air traverses the internal chamber.

An apparatus and kit for assembling a mobile platform and methods for making and using the same. When associated with a mobile platform, a power device can be installed outside a control device coupled with the mobile platform. The power device can be located outside a housing enclosing the mobile platform and exposed to an external operating environment of the mobile platform. Heat generated by the power device can be dissipated without installation of additional cooling equipment. The power device and the control device can thus have lower operating temperatures and longer lifetimes. The power device can be installed on a module associated with the mobile platform for further improving heat dissipation of the power device. The module optionally can function as a shock absorber for preventing damage to the power device in case the mobile platform is involved in a crash.
