Default Need your feedback on my temp readings on my T-Rex 600

Hello, I have the T-Rex 600 with the 600L motor and Align 75A speedcontroller. My battery is a 6S2P 4400MAH 20C Burst pack. My BEC battery is the Align 2S lipo. This is my first electric heli, so I want to know if I am headed in the right direction regarding proper temps and setup. I want to make sure everything is good before I purchase a really high quality battery like the EVO packs. Keep in mind that the pre-flight temps and voltage on the battery packs were taken 20 minutes after charging.

This flight was for 5 minutes of tail in hovering. The motor is running in governor mode at 80% throttle.

Outside Temp - 94 degrees

Pre-flight temps:
Battery Pack= 93 degrees / 24.9 volts
BEC= 92 degrees
BEC Battery Pack= 8.3 volts
Speed Controller= 92 degrees

Post-flight temps:
Battery Pack= 111 degrees / 22.7 volts
BEC= 100 degrees
BEC Battery Pack= 8.2 volts
Speed Controller= 125 degrees
Motor= 155 degrees (on side), 142 degrees (on bottom)

By these temps and voltage readings, does it appear I am headed in the right direction?

Any and all opinions would be very appreciated.

Thanks for your time!

Jay

All those are pretty good, except the motor seems just a little bit too high
