Is this a dead MMM?

Sounds to me like the motor locked up.

As for the 2nd motor.... You need to get a proper connection if you want any hope of it working. Get rid of the mismatched plugs and direct solder it if you want to test it. It sounds like the esc is doing what its supposed to do, but the motors arent.

Well I had some extra time today so I unsoldered all my 5.5mm bullets, and direct soldered the castle wires to a known working Medusa 3300kv. Plugged it in, powered it up, and still the same problem. So it looks like this is a problem with the ESC, and not the motor. It sure did die in a strange way. I will be sending it back tomorrow.
