Tekin Fx-R Running Hot

[HPI-Killer]

I may answer my own question but..... I'm not sure if escs run hot but a wire removed because of a cc bec instructions has been plugged back into the plug on my rx, do they run hot or do I need to unplug that wire again? If so can I cut it off all together?

Thanks

Your esc nor bec should get very warm. You have to unhook that wire on the esc when running a bec, that disables the esc's stock bec.

can the wire short something exposed unplugged?

I would just put some tape or shrink tube on the exposed + wire for the ESC so that there is no chance of shorting anything out.
