1512 2.5D vs 3D on 5S?

[tc3_racer_001]

i think most of all high ambient temps are to blame here. what would happen if you shipped it over to somone in the states and they were to test it? my guess it would be around 150F or less. this is whats happening to everyones motor at my track anyway. nitro motors seem to handle it fine but the electrics dont. but that said i got a cheap $30 HC motor of the same kv and length. had just as much torque but after 2-3 minutes of going up and down the street with an 80mm fan over it it was at 180F and climbing... whereas my neu in the same environment is around 100F...

the track seems to heat them up alot more than bashing around the yard, and i think ive figured out why. onmy track at least 99% of the time im on the throttle. thats what heats it up i think. it just doesnt get a chance to rest and cool down. in the yard though, you tear to one end, roll around then gun it again for a short amt of time. anyway thats what i recon is the cause of the temps and i think we just have to live with it!.
