Default help

I was out running my exo Terra for the first time in 4-5 months. I just got a zippy 3s lipo and charged it and did some heavy fast running. Loose dirt, gravel, sand, grass, concrete, up hill a couple times at a 60° angle.
My motor reads 152°f and my ESC is 135°f its geared 13/52. Using a hobby wing sc8 and ezrun 2700kv 4pole 4065 those temps just seem a bit high. Its about 95° the motor ESC and batt have no over head air flow bcuz it has the scale interior on it (I'm going to take that off tonight).

I for sure ran on every terrain I had available to me and ran it fairly hard. I wasn't pinning the throttle the whole time either. The only time I went full throttle was on flat concrete doing maybe 10 speed runs.

I should probably not be so hard on it and take the interior off u think???

If anyone else has a suggestion I'm all ears or eyes I guess.... I have given good thought to getting the traxxas velineon system and putting the sc8 and ezrun in my scx10 or a wraith.
So electronic swap isn't out of the ?
