Hmm, i have to disagree. :) Well maybe its because of the fan + extra heatsink, but the motor was 50-60C after driving. And I was driving inside, so the environment temperature was 20C+.
My pinion is 13t and spur 45t or 46t, so its not that heavy i think. I put low timing on ESC and low start power to keep the temps as they are now.
When I ran the motor outside, around 0C, the motor didnt go much over 20C :)
But yeah, compared to more expensive motors, these get much hotter I guess.
EDIT: The quality of these china motors also vary alot. Last 2800kv XL short circuited because some axle balancing epoxy kind of substance came off of the axle/magnet and went between magnet and coil. So some motors might also get hotter than others.
