I tried to fix it, cleaned the motor up, cleaned the gears, but still the same thing. Does anyone know what is wrong with it? I need help with it or I will have basically given my friend $250.

It happens all the time w/ the vxls-3 esc, just go thru the programming esc
setup steps and it will work again. And make sure the button on the esc is
not stuck down. I always pull the button up with my fingernails ever time
I push it down.
