540C motors, always hot?

[maxxdude1234]

A uBEC might help to keep the controller temps down a bit. But 180F for a motor is the maximum that is safe, you don't want to go any higher. Can't say I understand why everything's running so hot. How many cells are you running, and what controller?

9920, 8 cells and I do use a UBEC

I did get a temp reading from the cover of the ubec and it was 88 degrees. It was hotter than the ambient temp.

I was thinking that the ubec overheated, but it really shouldn't have.
