I built a 130 micro with lumenier f4 lux fc, 10amp 4in1 ecs and some ipower 7500s with these 650mah 3s batteries and it flies great and all however.... the motors are getting really hot.. Like right on the 5 second too hot to touch rule, give or take depending on how hard I push it. With my Ir temp gun im showing around 140-150f on each motor after a flight.
But here's the kicker for me... I assumed ya know maybe it's just too much D or filtering or something so I spin them up in my room with ambient of like 70f for about 20 seconds and stop it in motors tab in betaflight and they are still getting really hot.
So I said screw it and just kept flying them like that and eventually I decided I'd get some of the rotorx 6500kv 1105b's. I got them in and installed them only to find they are doing the same exact thing. The screws are just the perfect length and are not getting anywhere near the windings. I tested with my multimeter just in case and found no problems either.
Then! I ended up getting a piko blx board setup in it and once again, the same problem. It flies just fine but these motor temps are really bothering me. I mean what do you even do if they are getting this hot in motors tab? I tried using these small tri-blade props, I forget the specs on them but they are too small... I get like hardly any thrust with them lol so I never use them. I also tried the rotorx 3020 single blade props, and just one half of the rotorx 2535 props and they all get hot just the same. It seems the little 3 blade props actually get a little hotter.. probably cause I have to throttle more to get it go as fast.
