Nice looking collection Anh. Hopefully when you drive that thing you put the electronics cover back on though. Also make sure to keep your esc and motor clean! the dirtier they get the less capable they are of dumping the big heat that they create.

I've swapped the rx8 esc out for a viper vtx8 esc to have it waterproof and savage spends most of it time at the skatepark. I've never had heat issue when I ran it with the tekin esc; it has never neen above three bars on temp gauge on esc and barely warm to the touch. The viper esc is new but I don't see heat being an issue either but I will keep an eye out for heat
 
Other then the TVP bending have you had any other issues with the Savage Flux?

I suppose I should have said it "could" effect the ability to dump heat. By that I mean that it would take some pretty caked on mud or dirt, and you running it pretty hard.

Good to hear though that you take care of it and keep an eye on it.
