After some 5-8 minutes of flying my quad, I noticed that one of the ESCs is getting a little warm, whereas the other 3 are close ambient temperature.The quad flies well and as stable as my skills allow.
The quad is completely symmetrical with 4 identical Turnigy motors and 4 identical 30A ESCs. I fail to see what could cause only one ESC the heat up more than the others, apart from a motor/prop failure.
Any suggestions?

Darn - you're probably right! I didn't think of the (linear) BEC function at all. :-)
Thanks!
I'll bet you a magnetometer that it is the ESC which provides the BEC power to your APM...
