we have built a passive cooling system for the MCEs used in balloon-based experiments. Fins are inserted between the cards and heat transported from the fins to an extra flange via heat pipes. For Spider we find that simply bolting this flange to the cryostat wall is sufficient for heat dissipation.

Here are some pictures of MCE flight hardware
