Default mini u.s. p-n-p electronics problem, please help!

I'm fairly new to electric flight. The mini ultra stick in my first electric plane. It is the plug and play version, with a 2100 3 cell li-po. The problem I am having is the motor fails to run. I get the beeps from the speed controller and the motor briefly spools up to around 1/4 power, then stops. The battery has power, and has only been charged 6-8 times.

The problem started after a nose over at partial throttle, which of course stalled the motor. After retrieving the plane, I launched the plane again, and it flew fine for a few seconds. It started to lose power, so I brought it in thinking the battery was low. The next time I take it out is when I started having this problem. Is it possible something is damaged? (motor or speed control) Anyone have any ideas?
