Hi. Be kind on my english. A norwegian here Very Happy

Took my belt out for the first time today. Did a few small hover attempts. Worked ok. Then it looked like something was blocking the rotors to rotate. And then the white smoke appered, following a fire. After reading on this forum, I guess its the ESC that caught fire. But why? Any ideas? Do you guys think it would be okey to just buy a new ESC? Hope the rest of the chopper is ok...
