Default jerky motor in low end

guys,
showing problem described in general section more exactly. its somewhere between rx/tx, esc, and motor. motor is jerky when trigger is pushen only a little. more pushed, more speed and its okay. catched it on video showing that also esc is blinking in that situation (like not a good signal from rx?) and lighting when its okay.
what do you think?
setup: rc4wd outcry esc, 55t rc4wd motor, 2.4ghz radio
motor had 1hr dry break in on 2xAA

Check the motor springs and brushes, clean the comm if you can, when the motor gets jerky its normally the springs starting to wear or the comm is very dirty, it's strange that your motor is not that old.

I know you ve got 2.4ghz but it does look you got interference, hold on a while and see what the others says

To me, that looks like a problem with the esc, similar to running a castle esc set to brushless with a brushed motor. I'm definitely no expert in that area, but from the times I've forgotten to change the setting with a new esc, that's what it reminded me of.. Do you know someone near you that has a different brand esc and/or motor that you can try just to try and isolate the part that is causing this?
