I'm having some really... strange issue with motor heating all of a sudden and its happening under 0 load. After maybe 30-40 trigger pulls the motor is getting fairly warm and the general area where the connectors go is getting EXTREMELY hot.

The MOSFET has active braking which I assume is causing the fairly large arc when I let go of the trigger.

Specs: Tienly GT45000 Motor
11.1v LIPO 1200 mah 25c (50C burst) running through 16 AWG low res wiring
through a GATE 3.2 MERF Mosfet.

The battery is wired to tamiya right now, switching them to deans in the next day or so.

The wires going to my motor connector are soldered on vs crimped mostly because I didn't have any spares at the time so I just soldered the wires onto them.
