I would still be looking for max temps no more than 170-180 the heat kills the magnets and there are still magnets inside a brushed motor. They are just in a different location and are most likely lower quality so idealy temps should be kept cooler. The biggest issue with the stock traxxas brushed motors is the lack of bearings and the brushes aren't replaceable. I just went BL with my E-maxx cause the stock motors wore out in 2 months, the bushings and brushes are both shot, my batteries where only lasting about 5 minutes because of all the added drag.

heat causes the magnetic fields to align in one direction dosent it?
rendering the motor useless?

yeah these are just iron magnets, nothing like the special neodymium ones we get in the BL motors.

the traxxas titans were alright if treated nicely.
we correctly broke in a titan 12T (the worst motor ever) and ran it on 3s lipo for about 3 hours!!
pretty good i'd say

this motor also has the adjustable timing and stuff...i have it set to 2* advance as it can be very bad to use reverse with an advanced motor.
