But still, the space cell is still alive.

Does the vesc still work?

5

yes, I think so. Because there is a blue light at the vesc, but i noticed before it is shorted, there was a yellow light which means the vesc receive signals from the receiver.

Ouh I checked the vesc again and there are blue light and yellow light. Now im a bit confused either the motor, the receiver or vesc damaged.
