Help! E-MAX RS 2205 2300 Kv motor from a Flite-Test Arrow Value Pack is clogging, what is the problem?

[Ratcheeroo]

is the motor installed?

i'm not sure about the automatic binding, but i have never owned flysky

 

[Almighty_Chonk]

okay. so you have power. maybe a bad esc, still the original, correct?

check the battery voltage again.

are you sure it is binding? what does the manual give for instructions?

maybe a bad esc, still the original, correct? - No, I got replacement from flite test.

check the battery voltage again. - I checked again, and the voltage is 12.59

are you sure it is binding? what does the manual give for instructions? - I am sure it is binding, because, on the screen of the transmitter the receiver icon is showing, and I can control all other control surfaces smoothly (except the motor) with the transmitter.

 

[Almighty_Chonk]

is the motor installed?

Yes, the motor's leads are connected to the esc's leads.

According to the manual, once you bind a receiver to a transmitter once, The receiver will always be connected to the transmitter.

I tested the esc, by connecting it to the battery and receiver, when I test the esc leads that go to the motor, the tester says the voltage is 0.0, when means the 12.6 volts from the battery is not going through the esc. Should I buy the FT 20amp ESC w/ XT30 again?

 

[Ratcheeroo]

it would be zero unless the throttle was engaged

 

[bisco]

since you already have a new esc and motor, they are likely not the problem, although there is a small possibility.
is your throttle stick set properly? i'm not familiar with fly sky, can you adjust stick travel?

 

[CappyAmeric]

You tried to test the voltage from the ESC to the motor using the 3 motor leads?

As understand it, your motor and ESC were replaced? Then the remaining variable seems to be your receiver.

 

[CappyAmeric]

You can use a servo tester to test ESC and motor without a receiver.

 

[Almighty_Chonk]

Oh, that would work, but I don't really have one.

 

[Almighty_Chonk]

it would be zero unless the throttle was engaged

Oh, ok. That makes sense.

What is stick travel? I've never heard of it.

Yup, my motor and esc were replaced. So the receiver seems to be the problem?

 

[Almighty_Chonk]

Also, I learned my lesson and I made sure to use the shortest screws for the motor as well this time.

 

[bisco]

in my spectrum tx, you can adjust how far the stick moves in relation to output. it is called rates, and can be adjusted down to zero, so even though you are moving the stick, there's no output.

 

[bisco]

the rx sends the signal from the tx to the esc. i suppose it coulf be the prolem.
i wonder if you can use another channel for throttle as a test, i'm not sure.

 

[Almighty_Chonk]

Ok, I’ll check the rates. I found where it is on my transmitter.

 

[Almighty_Chonk]

Should I take the cap off the motor and have look inside?

 

[CappyAmeric]

I would not. If this is the replacement motor and ESC, there is likely nothing wrong with them.
