New housing for Myxa

We recently finally received our new housing for myxa. It is red, its aluminium and looks awesome. It acts as a heatsink and should improve Myxa’s efficiency even more.
Last time we run thermal tests we found that Myxa can provide up to 600W of power without a heatsink. With this new housing we expect this value to increase 20-30%. Some more thermal tests coming soon.
And of course, its red colour will make any motor spin 15% faster (it is no coincidence that Ferrari paints its cars in red).

Red is the official color for all Italian vehicles in motor sport racing .

Also Alfa Romeo are red as well as Ducati.

This whole design was inspired by lamborghini countach.

Could you provide the dimensions of the housing? Are there any mounting holes on the back?
