I have the Guarder ITU motor running with a M120 spring, high speed gears, and the Raptor FET. I'm also running it on high discharge LiPos.

I am unable to reproduce your experience with overheating, in fact, this setup runs fairly cool.

Shot in the dark, but have you tried running this setup on a 30C or 40C battery?

I mention this because I have actually experienced heating up of motors (M170 Devil Jet for example) when there was a *lack* of juice, not an abundance of juice. Sounds crazy, I know.

Also, have you tried another motor of similar torque/magnet spec, for example the JG Blue?
