Well, the Runner esc is for 18+ turn motors & the Amber you have is a 17 turn. Not way too much motor but still over what the manufacturer recommends for that ESC. If you are out running hard with that Motor & ESC that may be the cause, you should switch to a 19 turn or upgrade the ESC to a F1 or something.
