Hottest planes are the newest, most popular planes. Say that someone uploads a plane and it gets 5 upvotes in 20 minutes. That would put it on the hot list. If the same plane was uploaded, but got 50 upvotes over 3 weeks (unlikely I know), rather than all at once, that would be highest rated, not hot.
Hottest is the most upvotes in the least amount of time.

TL;DR hot planes are based on age
Thanks guys.....
(all planes in hottest have at least 1 point)
Highest rated are the planes with the most points of a certain age, and the hottest are like newest, but only with points
