ESC esc or motor?

[mart123]

Well great start.. (....I had a slight accident with the blades spooling up ..After catching a switch...blades hit my leg..lol...but I'm fine ).....
Problem is she won't throttle up now...motor dead?..esc dead...or both..and how would I find out?

First things first, make sure to check all connections. Then, hopefully you have an extra motor and ESC that you can test with. Start with the motor, and your ESC, then if that doesn't work, check the ESC with your motor. If neither of those work, then look at the Rx.

Thanks Tony, I decided to purchase new and if I find out either of the others is ok...then happy days I have spares....these were my choices.

You can upload them directly to the forum. If you click on the how to tab at the top of the forum it will show you exactly how to upload photos. But there is a photo upload button on top of the reply box. If i need to, I will make another video to show you how to do it.
