With a temp gun. Running two massive fans and normal tires on my k6 I have no issues getting the motor well beyond acceptable temps. I am in Texas and ambient air matters. You are not alone or wrong to worry about these temps the motor can generate. Mine hasn't died yet. I am hoping it will soon because I will buy the exact set up you have. But my motor gets hot fast and stays hot. Too hot. I am also very particular about bearings, fluids, tightness of heatsink etc. I can run a 6800mah pack through it doing jumps at a construction site and the motor will be so hot by the end of the pack that i cant touch that side of the chassis. ZERO performance issues just hate that it gets that hot. Hopefully it will break soon.That’s good to know!
And hell yeah man, hit me with that knowledge. I’ve only been at this hobby since mid January lol
To add. I have 3 6s vehicles from Arrma all running the same motor same issues with heat. Never hit thermal or anything like that but for as much air flow that goes through them they should never be hitting up into 180+ range in my opinion.
