I've been running pretty light on this setup here:

MM/ Fan /RX pack
Feigao 8XL
Zippy-H 5000mah 4S lipo

Here are the temps after about 8 minutes of running pretty lightly:

MM/Fan/RX pack= 155F
8XL=165-170F
Lipo=115F

Once the lipos get to 115 degrees I generally just shut everything down since I don't want to ruin the packs...
I'm running pretty lightly and the temps manage to get this hot...everything is hot...

I'm geared 13/46(whatever stock spur is) which is pretty low, I don't understand why i'm seeing these temps.

Thats when I made the guess that these temps may be directed from the Feigao motor? Do you think that is possible?

I want a setup that will run real cool and efficiently under race conditions, this is TOTALLY far from it. If the temps are like this after running how I have theres something wrong here..

Anybody got any motor suggestions that will be easy on the packs/all electronics, but still give me nitro like capabilities?
It seems like all other people running their lipos barely get over 100 degrees...I don't understand...

Need help on this!

Thanks boys
