Well, I spoke too soon about my system not overheating. Yesterday, I pushed my system over its limits by driving at high speed in grass during 100F weather. The controller thermalled after about 5 minutes. I don't have a temp. gun, but the controller was too hot to touch continuously, and the motor was almost as hot, but I could keep my finger on it. The emoli cells were barely warm, though. I do love those cells! :) In case you forgot, I'm geared 52/15 with M2K's.
