Hey guys,
Ive stepped into mod now and did my first runs today.
ambient temp was 40degrees C. and i had a couple little issues.

im running a orca vxx comp and thunder power 4.5T motor and it began to cut out at 105 degree C setting into the esc and again at 120. I turned the off the heat protection and did some runs checking temps every 2 mins and it was all sweet. did 2 5 min sessions and at the end of that my motor is at 55 degrees and esc was at 70 at the heatsink.

can anyone see this being an issue for the esc, is 70 too hot? i remember reading that some esc's dont like sensing the temp for other brand motors.

still need to play around with turbo etc when i get more used to the speed

thanks for anyones help appreciate it
