Ouch! battery got so hot it melted the shrink wrap!!!
#8
If you were running down to the last milliamp in your pack they will for sure get hot. Even in a 5 minute race with a stock 27T motor the batteries get hot. So running for a full 10 minutes with a 4.5 it's not surprising your packs came off pretty hot.

If you gearing is fine and the motor isn't overheating I probably wouldn't worry about it to much. Unless you think they are overheating and expanding which means they might vent.

Otherwise it's normal for packs to come off pretty hot.
