Default Redcat volcano exp motor not working

Volcano EXP

stock volcano. all original parts, brushed motor.

the motor is not turning. i have troubleshot following:
according to the troubleshooting guide suggestions for this condition, i have:
  • adjusted throttle trim
  • checked the wires inside the transmitter on the throttle trigger

also of note, steering works fine...

in addition, i have removed the motor and confirmed it is working electrically (hooked up AA battery, cleaned it with degreaser). so, with the motor confirmed, and simple trim adjustments and wiring in the transmitter confirmed, the only thing left in the middle is the ESC.

what are the chances that my ESC is bad... not sending signals to the motor? am i missing anything else?

thanks!
