Default Cause and Effect

The effect I'm getting is my rig has started tritching like crazy. Completely unresponsive. Seems to do it more when I try to apply throttle. It has caused my motor to get very hot and release the white smoke. After some inspection, I put another motor in that I had laying around and same thing!

So whats the cause? ESC has finally gone bad? RX/TX is done?

I had some weird twitching from my rig when I plugged a digital servo into my ancient analog RX... but that didn't smoke the motor.

You'll likely get better responses if you list your equipment. Otherwise, people will be just guessing.

Did you alter/replace/move anything recently before the problems occurred?
Have you been running the car in water/mud?
