Brushless system in my E-Maxx running a bit hot, any suggestions?

I would go higher voltage on that motor. Align designed it to run 6s. I had one in my maxx but the temps constantly crept up to 180-185 so I traded it out for a neu. It's too hot in Houston to play with temps. However your temps are fine. It is a good motor though and I always liked the sound it made!

I thought about going to higher voltage, but I want the truck to be somewhat controllable, so I doubt I will go with anything more than 4S.

regear it for higher voltage but same speed
