Lol.

Airflow is an r/c enthusiasts best friend- whether its airscoops or holes in the body, or a fan on the motor/esc (dont tell Brian), airflow is the key to reducing temps, so put your whip away and you might learn something

I'm still running the 7XL with no problems. I know you like to refer to this motor as the spinning toaster of death, but when summer came around I added the novak heatsink and some fans. Never let the can get over 170 degrees and it runs as strong as the first day I put it in. Now that winters here a little airflow over the heatsink and its good to go. I have more than gotton my monies worth out of this motor and still the only way I can describe it is crazy fast. Oh BTW, MMM V3 is still running strong. OH YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The ESC are "Water Resistant" as they have a coating around the circuit board but im sure its highly recommended not to run it where any kind of water can get to it
