Not if they're done properly. A lot of lasso-style sensors don't give an accurate reading because they often don't have good contact with the heat source. If Castle made an official motor sensor that used an aluminium clip-on clamp that wrapped most of the way around the can with the thermistor thermal-epoxied to it, then heat transfer would be very efficient and reliable.

I just think it'd be a simple, elegant feature that could be an invaluable failsafe measure IMO.

Castle speedos already do, with Auto-LiPo.
