Motor Gets Hot
Hi , I am a new member .
I have an Align 500 FG Clone with Metal Fly Bar type Head. Hyperion HS-HP 3026-1400 KV with 14 tooth pinion and a Talon 90 ESC . I Just put it together , flew Great ( simple manuvers to test Gyro and tracking ) . I went through 4 batteries and on the the last flight the Esc gave up . Castle Creations sent me a new one very quickly . Works again but motor gets fairly hot just doing hovering. Does any one have any thoughts. ( series 3s 2200mah 30c 11.2 v for a total 6s 22.2v) |

Hi fish, what exactly is "fairly hot" for you? high motor timing can make the motor run hot. The 3026-1400 is the most powerful of all the 3026, it has a greater consumption than the 1600 and is know to come down hotter.
I have not used a Talon but its weak point is the soldering between the motor connectors and the board. There are several reported cases of broken joints. |

What settings do you have in the ESC? What headspeed are you running? What throttle percent? How tight is your gear mesh? Do you have any binding or not chinless anywhere?
