I noticed with my quad, normally, all the ESCs give out the 123 (self test) then 3 beeps (3S battery ) and finally 2 beeps ("I'm ready to arm").
At -5C I got a case where 1/4 ESCs gave out the double…"

ESC component problems.
Hello all! For a few months now I have been messing around with one of the ESC controllers that came with my 3DR quad. In the shop the ESC works perfect. Take it outside and wouldn't work at all. 1. Before trying anything I had taken off the heat shrink and tried to find a loose solder joint. I was using some freeze spray and heat. I noticed that when I would cool the ESC it wouldn't arm, I would warm it up and it would work fine. Then as I was warming it up the ESC started to spin the…See More

Negative. Those electronics and engine are going to be my Drone. That was actually the second Tango. Very stable and fun aircraft. It is was I basically learned on.

Thus the moving towards the drone community was a natural attempt to eliminate human error, which I readily admit was the cause of all my rekitting "incidents".

Well I have been flying for about 7 years with airplanes. And this was my third crash with the same model airplane. This thing was so much fun. My first one I wish I had gotten a picture because one of my servo shorted out and it went straight into the ground and it was sticking out of the ground with the motor buried about 4 inches into the dirt. Same motor and electronics survived three pretty hard crashes.
