Hello, I seek advise on following. :? :? I bought a Lepton EX kit with the stock ESC and motor. As I stated to try hovering. It looks as if the ESC is overheating due the tail keep wagging after approximately 5 minutes and the ESC and motor are very hot to touch. I used 4S 14.8 volts, 3200MA 20C and 24 T pinion.

What is the stock esc and motor?

I also have the LEX components. I think the motor is a hyperion.

Mine runs OK. Motor and the ESC are.... say warm after flights.

I think your motor is overloaded. Try lessening the pitch a bit and puch up the trottle curve.
