I went from 5s2p A123 to 7s2p/7s1p then to 6s lipo, each step up my temps went down drastically, well especially when going from 5s to 7s A123. Tons more power too... this is in a 1512/3D(1700kv.)... runs VERY cool now, at the track, usually runs around 115F after a 30 min. MAIN in ~80F weather. Weird I know!?

Really, 6s lipo is enough to keep current levels down to a safe limit, PERSONALLY... but I still have a desire to go higher in the future, say 12s.
