Brand new setup? Were the motor screws too long? If two screws bit into the coils, the motor can could short out the ESC blowing a phase. No matter what, I would have the ESC looked at if there was smoke in ANY area!

While you're at it, do a continuity test between each motor phase and the motor can (there should be ~infinite resistance).
