I'll see what I can do with the gpio-pwm. BTW, on all my MiQi, I have raised the critical points to 90 degrees, one of my workplace build farm made of 4 MiQi, I have connected a large slow fan which start to run above 85 degrees and it's enough to prevent the critical point from ever being reached. The dissipate heat is very low and the heatsink small so with minimal air flow, the temperature drops very quickly.
