Annoying things these: Everything has to be checked if you have an issue….battery fitness (charge/voltage), stick position (up/down/centre/normal/reverse), polarity of rx lead.

Program card essential, and you have one which is good.

The motor is the thing that beeps, the esc buzzes the motor as far as I know…the esc`s do not have a speaker/whatever…?

Hi Andy,

I use substitution to solve these 'mystery' faults :-

ESC with different motor

Different ESC with planned motor

By-pass 'jumper' leads instead of the usual connectors (be careful not to 'short' anything !)

etc. etc.

Motor 'beeping' is usually a sign that the ESC is confirming a programming command. Different beep patterns confirm specific commands eg Soft Start, Motor Braking etc.

Best consult your ESC /Card instructions to see if a regularly occurring beep is, in fact, a valid command.

Failing this, consult the manufacturer's website "FAQ" section….it's likely that others have also seen this condition too.

Good hunting,

Dave

In the old days you could just switch the thing on.

Progress?
