For me...item 15 (on ESC setting) makes the motor HOT if you are using option like 1 2 or 3...that is the item I would keep an eye on it cause everytime I get it up to 2 or even 1 I will have some fun on the first couple minutes then it will drop or sometime....BLOW UP...LOL

Your motor should not go above 180~190*f. However, this is for SP motor temp...some ppl who runs LRP need to get the motor up to 200+*F to get the best performance...

G12314 and several others who posted here in Rctech are my long time test drivers...their experience on SP motor and ESC are well documented and you can count on their data.
