With the air temp getting around 30C at times, how hot do your lipos get when running a brushless main motor and twin motor tail.?

I know the highest operating temp is 60C but I guess mine might be getting close to that, as they are pretty hot after a good quick fly around.
But I haven't measured the temp as haven't really got a suitable thermometer.

The lipos don't swell or anything and I let them cool completely before recharging and they seem to be working OK, they are 11.1v 1000mAh 10C and 11.1v 1200mAh 10C.

So do your lipos get that hot or are you using different size ones?
