Right it's definatly not the receiver...tried another and exactly the same so what i thought next was changing the motor to an old 15 turn just to see if it is the connections not being able to handle to pull off that 12 x 2 like you guys said and i can confirm it's 100% that because the 15 turn went all the way without any splutter

Thanks to all that have helped and those who said connections well done

now i'm stuck as this is the part i dred the most because it's out of my capabilities i think


included a pic to see if you guys think this is tidy enough as well?
excuse the insulation tape around the esc lol she got a tad burnt last time round and needed dotoring lol
