HELP!. motor or esc problem?
 
Hi i was driving my car around the house and a small puff of smoke came out of the motor around where the tabs/sensor wire is. I noticed it because i was next to the car, if it was on the track, i probley wouldnt of even noticed the smoke.

The motor doesnt run properly now.. The throttle doesnt work, but if i give it a little push or turn the rotor with my hand abit it works..

There are certain parts where the motor doesnt repond to throttle, but if i turn the pinion over abit, it will move.. etc.

It was working perfectly, then i turned it off to adjust the camber/toe, and turned it back on and drove it a few metres and it let off a small puff of smoke.

Did i blow the sensor board?? or is there something wrong with my ESC?

I emailed novak and they rekon its my ESC that blew a mosfet.. but the smoke came from the motor? and the esc still works?

The motor is novak ballistic.
