As far as the temperature effect on the semiconductors, the dominant failure mechanisms are:

  1. Corrosion
  2. Stress from changes in temperature.

In theory, if the devices sat at 100 °C steady they would last "forever".

I would also be wary of having a PWM controlled brushless motor near radio circuitry.
