1. not over 150deg
2. the fan/wiring is busted and not working..
so most would assume its not over 150deg and keep on driving but if the fan is not working due to damage , then you will just keep driving until smoke comes out . (exactly what happened to one of my esc's) ..and those fans are not very tough at all.

If you are going thru all the trouble to attach the wire to the rec, why not just add the shrink like I did and re-route the wire. The fan plug on the pcb has plenty of clearance with the bottom case now, unless the pcb breaks in half the fan plug will not touch. The fan wire is the only problem I see now. All of mine will be modded like this, and I expect them to work fine.
