Totally Clueless! Help!!!
 
OK...I'm trying to test my motor (which I recently found out is a 3 stage motor and not a DC motor) to make sure it still works. It's an Astroflight 05 Brushless 806RM with a Jeti ESC w/ BEC. I just bought a Servo Driver but can't figure out how to hook it up.

I figured out the following (duh...):

3 Wires go from ESC to Motor
2 Wires go from ESC to Battery

Then there's the 3-wire connector and a 2-wire switch. When I look on the servo driver, there's a place for the 3-wire connector and a place for a 5V power source. Am I supposed to cut the switch off and hook it up to the Servo Driver's power source connector?

You'd get more responses if you posted this question in the "Electric" beginners section. (Or on Ezone.)

Thanks Anyways!!!
 
I found a local Hobby Shop here and got some great assistance. Since the ESC came with a BEC, all I needed to do was hookup the 3-wire connector to the servo driver and adjust the potentiometer. Damn! I've learned a lot about RC stuff in the past few months. Thanks everyone!
