Now that, I cannot believe - unless it is being actively cooled. My 1527 goes up to 160F on my 19lb buggy on 10s. No matter how good these motors are, they have less than 100% efficiency. So if you are putting a lot of power through them, some of that power is lost to heat - the motors will heat up.
