Default hot motor

After updated to the v255, I notice that the motor temp is very hot. I removed the pinion and full throttle the motor for 15 - 20 seconds. Motor temp can reach 130F +

I tried 2 17.5t motors (R1 and TeamPower) in blinky. Is it because of the drive frequency? I've tried 4k and 7k, both resulted in very hot motors. (just free spinning, no pinion attached)

ESC is also hot too. Around 100F.

Any idea?
