My GTP with neu/quark set up did the same thing. It was a bad connection where the wires attach to esc. I re-soldiered it and all is good.

If you have had the motor out lately, maybe the mounting screws are hitting a coil and grounding out a phase... had it happen to my 8XL. Try shorter screws.

Hard to say if there are cold solder from that picture. Either that or a failure on the rotor.. IMO

I know from experience that a blown motor will get VERY hot. I tried a CD in my Revo and it unloaded so much that the motor (10XL) spun relatively unloaded. Well, that's bad and it got very hot. Next time I ran it, it had a lot less power but got blisteringly hot. Mine never cogged though. Someone else used the rotor for a 7XL motor and it ran fine, so the rotor was fine. The coils just somewhat burned up. So I wonder if the problem is not the rotor, but one of the coils?
As others have said, it could be a cold solder joint, or just a toasted motor. I would try resoldering. Hopefully it's just that... |

Does it all work fine when you take the pinion off so theres no load on the motor?

thats really strange. same thing happened to my reedy 3 star in my tc3 last week and it would work fine if i pushed it (as if it was geared WAY high) then it was fine. motor was hotter than usual but the esc was quite hot... then i plugged it in again and it blew the caps and fets... grr... anyways castle wouldnt replace it under warranty (dodgy) anyway thats life.
