I'm sorry, that wasn't vague enough- could you be a bit less specific?

What are you trying to wire up exactly? Pictures, a full description & a diagram of what you want to do ( in MSPaint ) would be useful...

heya dominic

sounds like you have a little problem with wiring up your RC.

the red cable from motor to be connected to the + terminal on  the esc

the black motor cable to the - terminal on the esc.

some motors have 3 wires,

red to + terminal on esc
black to - terminal on esc
the third cable is sometimes blue / yellow / green, this is a sensor cable and is hooked to the data terminal ( usualy the centre pin on the esc )

hope this helps. if not shoot a message / question and i shall try answer best i can.

oh and welcome to MSUK  buddy
