mine did the same thing and the esc was new. i found out the middle wire on the esc was not soldered on good. i resoldered the connector and it's been working well, till i crashed the plane. not sure how it's working because the wires didn't look good. i'll just buy another one.
Hey thanks everyone for the comments it was a huge help! I learned alot of stuff about motor repair and rewinding. I was even looking at the winding kits. Can't thank you enough for your help!
Hey Dave sounds like a bad motor. Water may have eventually corroded the inside of this. Try a different motor with that esc to see if the esc is bad. Same with the battery try a different one and narrow the problem down.
yea whenever ive seen this happen people have always said it was a timing issue. u may either have to reprogram or get a new esc that has the right timing for the motor
That is a lack of power. Usually due to loose or uninsulated connections. DC electricity is touchy like that. I like crimp connectors best. No relying on solder to hold in a crash, or other use/abuse.

i think you should change the motor because i think that you burnt the brushesses of the motor

Check your connections , and then make sure its a good battery. I would run it very long like that very long.
May need to program ESC
