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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are the esc's water tight? ONly suky part of putting holes in teh body lets more bad stuff in to lol.
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
