LIPO getting excessively hot. Details inside

Right now I'm running a Hot Power 11.1v 1100 MAH LIPO (15c) through low resistance wiring through a MERF 3.2 (properly wired) into a tienly GT45000 motor to 16.32:1 ratio gears and MAN is this lipo getting HOT. The MOSFET stays at a nominal temperature (ever so slightly warm) but the battery gets pretty hot pretty quick when using the burst function and shooting on semi.

I'm not 100% sure what could be causing this (although I believe this battery is a POS) could it be that my motor is trying to draw too much power from the battery?

Also it is all wired to deans (and I did the wiring myself)
