Were you flying in sport mode in windy conditions. I have never checked if they were hot.

All motors will get hot but not that hot to not be able to touch. Sounds like the drone may have been fighting high winds unless you were in S mode.

Hi, we're sorry about that. Just to clarify, may I know if you encounter any error message while flying your drone before it gets hot? I suggest you cool down your AC before you fly it away because it is not advisable to fly it in bad temperature. Thanks.

Hi,
thanks for answer!
It was only 22. degrees Celsius and no sun and I was normal flying about a sea
NO S MODE, P mode.There was no warning.
But will there be a warning IF motors are too hot?

I can confirm that motor temp higher than it should be in regular, normal flight. Even when I was hovering at night (temp. 17-18 deg) temperature of motors pretty high.
I know what I am talking about because I use FPV drones too and there you need to tune up your drones by yourself
When you have hot motors this mean that something wrong. Starting from bad tune (PID controller, filtering of noise etc.) ending up with with overload of motors (a lot of weight, weak motor, not proper propellers etc.)
If motors hot due to bad tune of quad this means that motor jerks very fast and some power comes to motor heat. In two words saying - you loose flying time ;)

Maybe something what on what DJI engineers can look on.

you will not get warning if motor hot Because you didn't have temp indicators in motor
