Default PLEASE HELP, burned out 3 motors in a week!!

I have been burning out motors left and right. Tekin FXR, 35T motor, CC BEC, 32P gearing 9/60, Rockbeast 2 tires! Im Running 3s lipo, I have burned up 2 stock Axial 27T motors, and one Integy 35T motor. I got 2 new motors, a Traxxas 21T and a Integy 35T. I broke them in! I drive for like 5 min VERY slow and the motor gets 150F + so I swapped motors, I get the same thing??? Then my Truck will just take off, I look and the receiver has lost its bind? (The LED will blink, like as if the radio is off). I have tried new motor wires, rebinding im at the end of my rope! I don't know if there are certan settings in the FXR that need to be adjusted or what. PLEASE anyone??? Motors just get hot and ive smoked 3, just driving VERY easy. HELP PLEASE? Thank you!

Also I have taken everything apart and everything spins freely and real smooth, there is no binding anywhere!

This is better suited for the electronics section...plenty of very helpful minds there to maybe figure it out. For my 2 cents...stock axial motors and integy might be your first problem...not made to last long. But that doesn't explain everything if you don't have binding and are driving it easy. Gear mesh? Also...Burnt up motors? What are you seeing? Smoke? Eaten brushes?

Best advice...post some more info about the exact rig and specs and some pictures...maybe that will spark an idea on what's going on.

I bought a 35 turn integy last winter and ran it for a few minutes and it got blazing hot so I pulled it. I just bought a motor lathe so I pulled it apart and upon disassembling it I realized the factory timing was about 30* off. So I zero'd it after turning the comm and it's tits now. Moral of the story, check the timing of the integy at least since it is adjustable.
