Motor peak temp was 165f
Batteries 125f
Speedy 117f (but I did hear the fan come on)

Batteries were 2 * Harris 5000mah 2s 30C Hardcase Lipos


although I think the bottoming out probably increased my amp draw and temps a tad.

I will say this, this thing is FAAST on 4s, I ordered a pair of 3s Zippys today for a 6s set up, but I'm almost scared to try it!
That's strange that you lost some of the preload spacers. I have had some horrific crashes end over end with mine and haven't lost any of them.
