gear up around 40mph and put a fan on it. I have a messed up feigao 10L that would hit 200*F in about 2 mins so I installed a 80mmx10mm fan over it and it now tops out at 150*F (right where it needs to be) So if the 10L was working right(I think one of the windings have been hit by a screw) it would stay ice cold. Newegg sells a 60x10mm fan for like 7 or 8 bucks(worth getting for the feigao motors)

If you dont mind a fan your feigao will give great performance.
I was running a 7xl of a 80amp mgmesc and it(the esc) would hit 160* tops so I am surprised to here that the mm is getting so hot (I think the novak fan will bolt right up to the mm to help it cool too)
