    Fried new aquacraft 60 amp esc and 2030 kv motor

    Greetings virtual friends
    I just upgraded my PBS miss geico with an aquacraft 60 amp esc and a ul1 motor 2030 kv.
    I also was using an octura x642 prop with 2 2s 5000 nanotechnology batteries. And when I armed the system no beeps but the motor and rudder worked. I put it in the water and it was very doggy for a second or two and the motor quit but the rudder still worked. One quick sqeeze of the rudder and black goo shot all over the inside of mt boat. I know the esc is shot but is the motor also? Should I return both or is it just an esc? The motor and shaft spinn very easy and there seems to be no binding. Thanks for your help. Johnny

      Is this a new esc and motor or previously used? Is the esc the older version with the small cap or the newer version with the larger cap?

          When the Aquacraft ESC goes , it has been know to take the motor with it. I would try to return both.
