Does the software start-up? I'm assuming it states it can't find the ESC? Do you get any other alarms/alerts? How are you powering the ESC, sometimes you need it plugged into a battery. Do you have the on/off switch, if so, is it "on"? |

Is your esc soldered to anything else like a BEC?

That may be the issue. I wouldn't worry about frying the esc, I have done it both ways with no problems.
