OK, but wouldn't that be a rather design issue for the red team instead of 3rd party accessories? (heat pipe might be entery level though)

the underwater guys could implement that fairly easy with a pump and tube going over top of the cam possibly?

Moving away from a completely cast body to one that integrates a cast body with anodized sheet material will increase the heat transfer efficiency enormously. But that requires taking a look at the body design effort going on right now internally at Red. The problem with cast bodies is they tend to have thicker walls to precipitate material flow efficiencies through the mold. If Epic were to have a 40% cast body and a 60% stamped body, say out of titanium that was vaned even just a bit, you would probably see more efficient temperature management. There is probably no getting around passive airflow vents either. But I understand the design intent and these solutions must be harmonious within those parameters.
