Hello all,
I have posted about this before and really haven't had a solution. Once in awhile after I get the computer hooked up to the quad and get things set. Then I unhook and get the motors going. One motor will not spin. I will try a few times and eventually it will start working. It has happen before and it just happened again.
3dr quad, apm1, 880 motors and running the newest of new software.

I've had the same thing happen but it's usually more than one motor. The cause I determined to be the capacitor I had on the 5V line that either the APM or ESC's didn't like. My solution is just to wait about 30 seconds in between battery changes. If I do it any quicker. It ALWAYS happens and is usually 3 motors that will not spin up. Do you have a capacitor installed? I do it just to avoid any quick brownouts during flight.
Sounds like you need to recalibrate that ESC again (or, if it's gone wonky, replace it)
