Heck even on a 50f day outside on my box stock Flux with standard tyres and gears the ESC fan seems to be on more than it is off and that was running 4s Polyquest Enerland 5100mah 30C lipos. Is this project well advised while we don't have "reliable" 1/8th ESC's about or are the Tekins more reliable than the Castles? Obviously with the MMM still having a 2-3 week wait time on repairs / replacement it's still an ongoing issue.

I have had a few failures myself but I beleive most failures are from user errors.
