Your way to hot if it does evaporate though. Using the breaks a lot seem to heat up the castle motors more than anything. On pavement in front of my house where I have to use the breaks to almost a complete stop before turning around, my 2650 gets up to around 150-160 after 10 minutes. On grass with the same gearing, ande very little breaking, temps are much cooler - about 140 even with 5s. When you do get a temp gun, be sure to measure the temp of the sticker on the endbell to get accurate readings. Measuring from the exposed aluminum on the fins will not yield accurate readings.
