hey all,
im new to this stuff but have the same problem.
I've got a hyper7 thats I've rebuilt with a bl conv kit and have it all set.
tx works, pared with rx (both are tamco). steering servo works.
heres what I've done so far.

1. Started with same issue as o.p, (couldnt get any flashes or beeps during th calibrate).
2. reset all cables... and then the motor started beep.beep, beep.beep (according to the esc book, low voltage, so i charged battery which is a nimh 1800) - no lipo yet as run out of money
3. after batt charge was able to run the calib procedure, neutral (1 green flash and single beep), full forward (double flash and beep), full reverse (triple flash and beep).
4. Next issue, was motor wouldn't run, restarted esc and green flash, double beep on startup (normal) but then esc red led flickering and no motor, according to the book'o'words, esc flicker was sign of braking.
5. set all brake settings on tx to 0 and restarted esc.
6. now get normal startup flash and double beep, and then esc has no lights (so normal right)?

well heres the problem, the motor is doing this soft clicking (like its trying to turn over) but nothings happening.

Any suggestions?

Its a HobbyWing EZRUN WP-SC8 with a Leopard BL Motor.

Thanks in advance and hope this may have been of help.
