What temps Sike? (ambient/motor/controller?)
An opti sensor huh? Could they be planning on releasing something else that takes advantage of this? If so, I wonder what it could be?

Ambient the day of the Vids was around 45 degrees.

The motor warms up to about 115. I can sense No heat at all coming from the ESC. The ESC is oversized, but very cool running.

I may swap out the Monster Pro 125 amp for a Brand New Quark 80amp that I have on hand. The 80amp is more than enough to handle this setup I believe.

The Lipo's might have been 85-90 degrees or so.

The setup isn't very stressed at this point.

The Motor fan is required however. Also, on the 10 turn, the stator poles are wound so full, I believe it is really limiting the amount of air flow the fan will pull.

There could be a difference in this area with the 8 turn motor.
