Lots of back and forth driving indoors will also heat the esc up quicker than normal as you arent using full throttle (escs are only efficient at 100% throttle, anything less and they will heat up more rapidly).
I will look for a Temp gun soon!

Oh, another strange thing: If I put the Battery on the ESC, and don't do anything, no steering, giving no throttle, or any other things, the ESC gets a little warm
