Status: offline 		 I've got an Eflite Power 25 with Castle T-bird 64amp Esc. Today as I was checking my controls in preperation to go to the field, the prop stopped spinning and would just jerk in place as it made a chirping noise?  The battery was fully charged and all other controls continued working properly. I re-bound the tx to the receiver and got the same result.
All help appreciated,
Ed

Glad it works again.
