My Neu motor locked up during the 5th flight yesterday during a 45 degree uplink. Starting from 10 seconds prior to the lockup, I can feel the motor lose some power and did not respond well to throttle (some hesitation). The ambient temperature is around 97.

Upon landing, I inspected both ESC (CC 120 ICE2) and the motor and found both are very hot. The motor is too hot to touch. The ESC emits single beeps before the power battery is disconnected (motor lock). There is no indicator of any burning. Some more analysis with ESC's data log reveals: max amps for all sessions is 78A, 75A for the last flight session.

In previous flights, the motor and ESC appear normal.

I love to hear any comments or suggestions.
