Default RE: T-REX 450X 3D EP Helicopter Kit

Anyone else getting a really warm motor after normal flying (no 3D) for 15 minutes? I can't hold my fingertip on the motor for more than about 3 seconds. The battery and ESC are just warm to the touch, as I would expect.

Setup: Explosive 3D Combo from HeliHobby

Trex 450X with wooden blades
8T Pinion
E-Flite 4200kV Brushless Motor
Phoenix 25 ESC
Deans Connectors from battery to ESC
Thunder Power 3-cell 1320mAH Li-Po
Hitec Eclipse 6 RX
Heli 9303 TX

Pitch curve: -100 -50 0 + 50 + 100
Throttle curve: Normal Mode 0 25 50 60 70 90 100

Hover is at slightly above center stick. Still working on getting an optical tach and an infared heat sensor.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
