The Vortex 70 is a sensorless ESC... is your brushless motor a sensorless type?

no it is sensored have you checked you sensor wire vxl?
the esc can switch between sensored or sensorless check you have the right mode set

regards
dave
Sensored mode:
Green and Red LED ON – forward and reverse
Orange and Red LED ON – forward only

Sensorless mode:
Green LED ON – forward and reverse

Orange LED ON – forward only

If you bought this new, the retailer who sold you it is legally obliged to provide a one year warranty - the Sale of Goods act and perhaps Distance Selling regulations have you covered. Note, it's the retailer and not the manufacturer who is responsible.
