I've got 2 M4's with the same issue - the motors are overheating.

I'm running 11.1-volt lipos, with mosfets.

Gears are high-torque. Springs are somewhere in the 110-120 range.

Nothing remarkable at all about he guns.

The problem I'm having is heat. After a hundred shots or so, I can feel the grip getting warm, and soon after, they're hot, and on a couple of occasions, the motors have seized up on me.

Granted, these motors have NOT been hi-end motors. I think the ones I've lost are a stock G&G, one was a neo-dymium (can't recall the brand off hand), one was a basic Element hi-torque.

Everything is lubed and shimmed properly. Could it just be that the lipos are just too strong?

They're Turnigy's from Hobby-king.

Would a higher-end motor handle the power better?

Any thoughts would be appreciated

thanks
