I've got a Park 480 910Kv outrunner that just started actin up on me. I bought it used and have flown about 10 flights on it, no issues. Today I was flying for about 10 minutes and I heard it make a loud screech like sound and powered down, I backed the throttle back and advanced it again and it worked for about 5 seconds before repeating the screech and quitting again. I landed and threw in a new battery, 90 seconds into a fresh battery it does it again. All my wires, connections are good, esc is good, any ideas? This is the only electric I've dealt with so I'm clueless.

I have heard of the bearings going bad on those, even on new ones. That would be what I would check.

Thanks for the link ericb, thats exactly what happened to me, kinda lame since the motor isn't old at all. Oh well, I'll just buy a couple of replacement bearings and keep them on hand.

Have you tried a little bit of transmission fluid on the bearings?
