So i received my l2210a motor today, and I connected it up.
When i moved the throttle stick up, nothing happened...
The motor starts spinning only when the throttle is set to more than half, ie:the middle line of the stick.... Before that it is null, and when it engages, it lurches into motion....
I am using a TURNIGY L2210A, with a HK 25-30A ESC, 1300MaH 3s battery, and a FSTH9X RADIO....

Any help appreciated...

Thanks,
Aniket

It looks like your ESC end points need to be re-calibrated. To calibrate ESC to the end points of your transmitter, switch on your transmitter, fully raise throttle and connect your battery to the ESC. After hearing the first two beeps, fully lower the throttle stick. You can check your ESC manual for precise instructions to do this and please also make sure to remove the prop from your motor before doing this. Also make sure to neutral any throttle sub-trims. There could be other reasons but this should be the first one to try. Keep us posted.

this sounds like you might have accidentally programmed the ESC to nimh battery.

find your ESC manual and reset to default.

No worries about the name especially since you sent that with a potato using a lamp. Some time even my iPad and iPhone autocorrects and types weird stuff. ;)

I am glad I could help to fix the problem.
