On my Sky Surfer plane.

I replaced the motor controller and still same thing. Have another motor too.
Both motors act like the are stuck and pulse around but don't spin.
When I plug in the battery I get the beep all ok and all control services work fine just no
motor when I push the throttle???

If you are using Futaba, it's likely you need to reverse the throttle direction, and recalibrate the throttle. See the instructions that came with you ESC.

I have a Futaba on another plane but this sky surfer came with its own. Will have to check it , Thanks.

Would be helpful is we knew the motor, esc and battery. Though I find that most issues are throttle trim or connections (solder joints, connectors, etc..)

You may try (remove the prop) powering model up with throttle at full throttle, then throttle down to to 0. If it doesnt arm, lower your trim and see if it arms (you might get a beep per cell, 3S = 3 beeps)

Let us know if you get it fixed.

Well the motor is still acting the same way. just jerks around and doesn't want to spin. I have never ever had this problem.

Check the connection between the ESC and MOTOR. If one of these connections is open or has a high impedance, you can get the symptoms you describe. As said before, if the transmitter is a
Futaba or Tactic, make sure the throttle is reversed. Also make sure the throttle trim is set to full off

Will chaeck connection this is not a Futaba, its a Fly Sky FS-T-4C what cam with the Sky surfer.
I have a Futaba 10C I use on other models and might have to fix this one to work with it and put a new rcv in it.
But its strange I never had a problem like this before on any model
This transmitter has worked great over the years.

Well the new motor has started to work. Just got around to trying it again and this time the new motor works fine. The
old one is done looks like.
So back up in the sky soon When this wind here in Florida stops.
