As much as I love my Feigao 7XL for torque and speed I finally picked up a 2200 and the heat difference is night and day like you said. I've got an emaxx with the 7XL and one now with the Castle motor. Even on 4S I could tell the accelleration difference between the two with the Castle pulling ahead even on batteries that arent rated as high as ones in the truck with the 7XL. When you put 5S on the CC motor its rolling wheelies at any speed and enough speed so I cant go full throttle any more as the speed just gets to be a bit much. Funny thing is the temps are still lower on 5S geared for 55mph than the feigao on 4S geared for 40mph.

I think Castle is referring to my blue LED powered Feigao motor when they talk about motors that need fans and gimmicks. And sadly enough this fan didnt work as well as it looks. I'll have to take a picture of my dual 40mm fan heatsink I run during summer one day for some good laughs.
