"We" is my son and I. Not claiming to be royalty, nor are we claiming to be better than anybody else.

And yeah, ABOUT 185. Forgive me if I cannot remember the exact temperature reading ... maybe I should run three more packs and give you an average. Geez.

Just another note on the Orion ESC. You cannot just replace the fan while the ESC is in the car. You have to remove the ESC from the car, remove 4 screws from the bottom of the ESC, and pop off the top of the ESC, just to replace the fan ... that's a bad design. We have switched back to the Tekin, and have ordered a bunch of fans. The fan on the new Tekin "we" have in the car now keeps the ESC temps at "about" 115 degrees.
