Default Tail Motors on lower hobby grade copters

Hello All,
I ordered a fixed pitched heli to spend some time on before moving up to a CP. I did some research and found that the WLtoys V912 with the brushless main motor does well by many with good reviews plus there are tons of parts available.

I have a question about brushed tail motors on these non hobby grade types. Do they burn out easily because they heat up and would an aluminum heat sink make a big difference in longevity ?

Thanks in advance!
