Quick questions. Your running a 9S set up right? You disconnected the bec in the esc, and are using a ubec or flight pack right?

Looking at the photos it looks like the red wire is still in the lead and not disconnected.

The CC80 is only rated for 6S with the bec connected, 12 without it.

If it's as I see it, you're running the built in bec and your problem is the bec can't handle the voltage and is overheating.

Just checked the Eflite 60's specs too. Max voltage for it is 28.8 or 7 lipo cells. And you're running 9 cells?

And your set up is pulling 52 amps? Max continuous for that motor is 40 and burst of 15 seconds to 60 amps. 52 amps is what your system pulls at all throttle positons, it's just how long it pulls that, that determines the speed. Meters get tricked trying to read anything but full throttle as they tend to average their readings over a set amount of time, the pulsing of the power to the motor tends to fool the meter into a lower amp reading at lower then full throttle.

Granted I'm know for stretching the limits of stuff, but it almost sounds like you are really pushing the motor and esc's bec capabilities way past where they should be.

I run the same motor and prop on my Hangar 9 Camel on 6S, and same set up spinning a 14x13 3 blade on my old Hangar 9 P40, and both flew great on 6 cells.
