Default Need help diagnosing Axe CP

Hi all... on my Axe CP, one of the solder connections to the tail motor seperated, causing the motor to slow way down and arcing at the connection. When this happened I re-soldered it but the motor wouldn't work at all. On the bench with the main blades spinning slowly and the tail trim full right, I measured 10VDC at the tail motor but it wouldn't run, figured it must be a bad motor. After replacing it, though, the heli spins left so much that full right tail can't even keep it straight. Could the arcing motor connection have damaged the electronics? And if so which component? Thanks in advance.
