Yeah, last night I had this cut out with freshly charged batteries. I also had a problem with the brakes going on almost all the the time except for sometimes it would freewheel just fine. I'm going to reprogram it tonight and try it again.

After about 20 minutes of running the controller was still only 130f or so, but the motor got up to 195f. At 10min it was only 135f or so and the controller was cool. I'm thinking this is normal for running so long, or should I gear down some more? I'm running 12/51 right now, with UE diffs and 40 series mulchers. On the street it never got hot at all, but in the backyard track it did after 20 minutes...
