To cut a long story short, can someone explain why the ESC just exploded in a puff of smoke and why the hell that just happened. (Polarity is fine, checked and rechecked, I mean it switched on fine and I touched the throttle and bang gone)

P.S. How much is a Ve8 worth with a Castle motor? (minus the ESC)

I'm pretty devastated.
