My motor temp hit 205*F after 5 minutes and the outside air temp was around 75*F. I need it to run cooler, but how??? I thought I was already running conservative settings on my ESC.

My ESC settings are:

4/ 8
9/ 7
12/ 7
13/ 4
14/ 5
15/5

The car seems good all around with speed and braking, but the motor gets waaaay too hot! Please help!
I am running a SP V2 11.5t motor with the 422 FW. My motor temp usually at 65-70*C. First I suggest that you get a heatsink and a fan to externally cool the motor. This will help alot.

If I'm you at that FDR, I'll use this setting: -

4/ 7
9/ 5
12/ 7
13/ 1
14/ 2
15/ 4
