Title: Motor repair
Post by: RAHUL QUADY on May 05, 2017, 12:57:02 PM
How do i know if there is something wrong with my motor?,i have a motor and few escs and the motor doesnt work with two of my escs,it just vibrates and it works fine with the other escs,why is this happening?.I guess there is  something to do with escs.Does a motor with burnt windings work when connected to an esc?,does it make any sound?

There can be "n" number of reasons

1) Check that all three wire's soldering is proper (push them in bullet connector)
2) Calibrate the throttle
3) Check if ESC is in working condition (using another motor)

I followed the first and third steps and there is nithing wrong with soldering and the escs are working fine with the other motors.I couldnt calibrate all the escs with throttle but i was able to calibrate the escs with ch 5 and ch 6.I dont know why i couldnt calibrate with throttle.
Thanks for the reply.

Iam using HK 6ch transmitter.And i even have a motor which doesnt make any sound when ever i connect it to a my new esc.Its windings got burnt i think,all i could remember is smoke,which came out as soon as i connected it with a faulty esc.

From above posts i can conclude that you have single motpr but multiple escs. Your motor works fine with all escs except two escs. If that is the case ESC s might be the issue. If you have other motor try to use them with ESC that is not working.

Then the motor has burned. But don't throw it away. You can use it's bearing, shaft etc. later.

I think you already have the answer:

Was this smoke from the ESC or the motor?
