Some people have trouble keeping temps in check on 4s with an xl sized motor in an MT, I really don't see how it's possible with a smaller motor and less voltage, IMHO!
I did it in my Revo, so I'd think it would work in an Emaxx. I guess I'd better clarify - that was with two six cell packs - standard Emaxx config. When I had mine set up, I heard a lot of people complaining about overheating the L cans all the time also, so I kept an extra close eye on it too. Maybe I didn't supply enough juice to it to get it hot!

I run it right now with two 2S2P A123 packs, and its in the range of 40.
