Apparently the overheat protection does not work so don't trust it either. I contacted Hobbypartz and they said they only warranty their items for 30 days - I had it less than two months. They told me they do not honor the warranty from the manufacturer which is six months. I contacted Hobbywing directly, but they are in China and have never responded to my warranty request. So be aware that the warranty on Hobbywing items is virtually useless.
mine handled 6x cell lipo fine in a truggy.
Hardly ever got more than a little warm.
Maybe he should have come on here to get it sorted or rung the retailer direct as yes that is not good enough and probably frustrating for Hobbywing as well.
Every manufacturer has issues and I have had more failures from Novak and Tekin than I have Hobbywing.
