And the MM has a 5v BEC, so it's burning off even more energy as heat than you think.

Getting a bigger motor won't decrease amp draw... Changing the load will, though. The idea is to have a motor that is sized such that this motor operates more efficiently than motors of other sizes. But since Chinese motors have lower efficiencies to start out with, it is often easiest to switch to a larger motor that has more surface area to dissipate heat. But that has nothing to do with the ESC's heat...

i understand that but i doubt those nimhs will max out the mm
