The bec in the mm tends to heat up alot, and the mm has a minimal size heatsink and thermal abilities. BrianG did some testing and found that anything over 7.4v made the internal bec heatup quite a bit. A novak fan and some 1/8" spaces will help the mm stay cooler. I know some here do not like fans, I do not mind, but am not that hard of a basher! On 3s you should not have much problem with heat, but keep an eye on it during the first few runs. If you have an extra 50 artur(griffinru) can mod the mm and make it much better at managing its heat. I would give it a try first and see how it works for you. Since it is getting cooler you may not have issues.
