    Default esc temp

    just finished running boat with new larger prop, noticed esc was a bit warmer than previous runs with smaller prop, did gain more mph, just curious what is an acceptable and safe temp on esc without risk of damage?

    The warmer it is the less efficiently it will run and the shorter its lifespan will be. Over 60c it has a significantly greater risk of death and by about 100c it will be unlikely to survive.
