Maybe the bearing is a little loose and allowing play in the motor shaft.

RE: Parkzone Corsair - Speed controller, motor, or something else??

Check all connections first. If receiver is getting power and nothing else works try swapping receivers. If the problem presists try swapping ESC. It should be one of the two.

RE: 2.4ghz vs 72mhz..need help

FAD meaning " I gotta have it " That is a fad. There are little kids toys that are 2.4 GHZ that only reach 10 ft. but people see 2.4 GHZ and they think it mean something special.

RE: 2.4ghz vs 72mhz..need help

Don't be fooled with 2.4 ghz.  It is a new fad and has a shorter operating distance than the lower bandwidth (72mhz)

The only benefit is no long antenna.

Buy the 72 Mhz.
