Default RE: motor temperature check

Okay. The range is in either –27 to +428 degrees F or –33 to 220 degrees C

With +/- 2% accuracy.

Good enough for me. I flew a whole pack of 8-cell 3300 mAh pack, set it down out of a hover, and it measured 155 degrees F.
The temperature outside was 49 degrees F.


I’ll be curious to check it when it gets warmer during the summer and see how much hotter the motor will get. I had problems with the speed controller heating up and that is why I needed to cut the holes in the top and bottom of the canopy.
