Thanks Missileman,

This plane only cost about $100.00 I just hate putting another $150.00 to $200.00 into this plane! Guess I will just try and get more cooling to the battery and fly it the way it is. Get it into the air ASAP, cut the throttle back just enough to keep it flying and see how that works. If a temp. from 180 to 215 degree F. is the norm I will just live with it. In general do NiMH batteries tend to run hotter than Nicd? Thanks again for you help.
