Default DD tail motor quit after 4 in 1 pot adjustments

I spent the morning tuning my blade CP as per bdavidson's instructions. I took it out to hover it and see if it needed any fine tuning adjustments. At first it hovered all over the place, so I stoped to adjust the 4 in 1 pot setting slightly. When I took it back into hover to check it, the tail rotor started to pulse for a few seconds and then it just quit. I've tried everything to get the tail to run but no luck. I reset the pot setting back to where it was before the rotor quit, I unpluged and repluged in all the wireing in the 4 in 1, and the battery was fully charged. The LED on the 4 in 1 sets up normally, flashes red, flashes green, solid green.
Anyone have any suggestions what could be wrong?
By the way I have a DD GWS tail motor w/heat sink

Man I bet myself based on the title "Blade CP". Yep!

Sorry man. I have seen lots of tails blown out on them.

Try plugging your stock tail motor back into the 4 in 1 to see if it runs on the bench. If it does, then either your DD motor has gone bad, or you have some bad wiring, etc...

If the stock motor also does not run, then you may have damanged the 4 in 1 somehow.
