Eric, there's a big difference saying that a motor is an amp hog, and it CAN HANDLE a lot of amps. And I agree with that statement that yes, the TPs CAN handle more amps than the typical Chinese motor can.
The TPs have better wire in them and more of it. Not really the actual copper quality, although I wouldn't doubt that it is inferior in the cheap motors. But it's the quality, and the temperature rating of the insulation on that wire.
And there are reasons why they would use the inferior wire.
But to your problem, the only fix that I found was to throw the damn thing in the trash, and get a castle. And I had 4 of them. I only have one left and the reason I keep it is because I only use it to test motors on the bench after rewinding them. I don't have a way to load the motor on the bench YET. And If a rewind wasn't just right, and were to burn up the Seaking, well, I wouldn't shed a single tear. Then for testing, I'll move on to my next most hated esc, my MGMs.
