    Is it programmed for the correct voltage?

    i think so.
    I have that little card with the dip switches.
    Could that cause it?

    Calibration was done a while ago.
    it worked properly then this problem came up.

    is there away of re calibrating?

    Check all the connections first if all are good re-calibrate the throttle. The re-calibration is the same as the first time you calibrate.

    Pistol style transmitter calibration
    - Correctly connect the ESC with brushless motor, plug the receiver lead of ESC into receiver ( usually into
    Channel 2);
    - Put the throttle to the forward full position, turn on the transmitter;
    - Power on the ESC, there are 3 beeps emitted from the motor, which indicates all electronics are correctly
    power on for the setting.
    - Then there are 4 long beeps emitted from the motor ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ .
    - During or after the 4 long beeps , move the throttle to the neutral position. Two beeps emitting out
    indicates calibrating is completed.
    - Following two beeps are powering beeps, it is time to go now!
