So i had just finished the buildout on the S500 frame and was testing the wiring and direction of the motors.I have an APM 2.6 and it would not let me arm. i was able to initially plug in one motor at a time to chan 3 of the apm and go through the manual arming process to get know if they were correctly wired.originally i thought that the apm was not arming because of gps issues (alt hold error and gpos error) shown on the PC version of planner but i then connected the apm to my nexus tablet and got a battery low error. i have a power module 1.0 so i went into planner and manually set the checked power and amp. and was able to arm from the tablet.i arm the motors and begin a test to see if they are rotating correctl, 3 of my motors started moving while the throttle was at zero and the fourth started randomly shaking and I begin to see smoke from one of the escs!!!i did move the throttle to 10% and the 3 motors did throttle up but they never stopped.I unplugged the battery and verify all my connections but everything seems fine. i still have no idea why it burned out.any ideas?these are the motors:these are the esc:i have a 5000mah 3c batteryeverything was brand new.photos of esc attached:Thanks!!Jose
