Anybody temp their battery after about 10 minutes hovering, I have TP2100 3 cell, after 10 hovering it is about 140F, battery is warm not hot, is it normal? and motor tempture is also around 140F, I have Align 400SF with 13T.

How do you keep the battery temp down, what is normal, maybe my Pitch curve is wrong, I set throttle stick L-M-H at 0-6-10, Thr-Curve and Pitch curve set at 0-25-50-75-100.

thats high man... i have the same setup and my batteries dont go hogher than 130-135 and the 400SF doesnt go over 100 after a 13 minute flight. I think you need to run more throttle and less aggressive pitch curves perhaps. You can try it anyway. Are those gen 1 or gen 2 TP2100's? Do they have a yellow or blue stripe where it tells the voltage and mah etc.

It has a yellow label on the top of the battery, I know that my throttle and pitch is not at right relationship yet, still need to dial in.I will give it try tomorrow. Just had my first 10 minutes hovering, so more work need ...

Yellow label is Gen 2 so your pack is not the problem You prolly just need to work on throttle/pitch relationship as you said a bit more and the temps will come down.

Good luck.
