That aside, this morning I used a heat gun to try and induce the problem, and could not get it to shut down, I did not have a temp gun, but I did get the RX a lot hotter than I would feel comfortable with (very, very hot to touch) So I personally feel comfortable using the system, I remove the canopy from the plane whilst sitting on the ground and park it in the shade, so that removes the baking effect on the ground.

Thats the way to do it,better than complaining, look for a solution,i was thinking in doing that to my 28% and going back to the good old foam wrapping.i will get some good old solar film for the canopy too.
