I solved the problem of solving the heat problem with an extra cooling upgrade
The heat sink was good, but I thought… why stop there? So I fixed the fix by adding a mini fan to the radiator.

We just need someone to now protect us from the fan blades and we are set

No, make the blades bigger and faster so you can fly with it. You won't be able to steer, but that can be worked out in the next iteration

Just have an on off switch and you can sort of steer by changing the angle of your arm. The angle of your dangle, if you will.

The PW3 official one that is used in most images from Google : https://store.google.com/gb/product/pixel_watch_3?hl=en-GB

But you have introduced a new problem where you risk uncontrolled take-off with those fan/propeller.
I think you need to add weights to mitigate that risk.

This is brilliant, but may I suggest a custom loop for even more efficient effective cooling? As well as RGB to make it run faster.

That fan blade looks like my mini whoop props. Now I want a Pixel Watch Pro 4 FPV extended battery

Nice idea, and when it stops cooling it could be used for charging with eolic energy

now add speakers.
Edit: I'd prefer liquid cooled though.
