Overcurrent would be hard to believe as a lot of people here run much hotter motors. Not to mention that I don't thing the ESC contains a method to measure current. When I took it apart, I did not see any current-sense resistors or inductors. It's probably an over-rev condition. Revving a 4600 at 4s is over 68,000 rpm! Until now, I wondered why you had so many bad ESC's - now I know! ;)
