What vehicle? What voltage? If its a light vehicle you could try going up another tooth or 2. Cant realy hurt if the rest of the system is running that cool.

Sounds like you have been running the setup for a while.... any historical temps from the motor so we have a comparision point of how much they went up, or is this just how it has always been.

Check all of the connections to the motor. Make sure any connectors are tight and in good shape, make sure all of the solder joints are solid, make sure all of the wires are in good shape (from the esc to the motor especially). All it take is one questionable connection and it can cause havoc with motor temps. If all of this looks good you might pop the motor out and see if you can feel any play in the bearings. I had the front bearing of a neu start to go bad and my temps rose quite a bit very quickly, and the more I ran it the worse it got over time until I figured out what it was. If you can feel any side to side play at all in the motor shaft the bearing is suspect.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly
