Solara,

The overheat protection should work for the motor and ESC. I took this from the GT2.0 manual.


If the function is activated, the output power will be cut-off when the temperature of the
ESC or the internal temperature of the motor is up to 95C for more than 5 seconds. When the protection happens,
the Green LED will light.
 When the ESC is over-heated: The Green LED flashes as “”.
 When the motor is over-heated: The Green LED flashes as “”.
Note: The over-heat protection function for the motor may not be 100% accurate for motors other than Speed
Passion brand.
