did you check your esc......you could have blown the fets. Charge the batts and take the pp for a ride...hopefully its not the esc at all.

You can tell that you fried it when it doesnt come on, the servo and rx are not getting any power, or it will go forward but no reverse or vice versa.....since most esc's have fets for forward and reverse.

Can you give me just a little more detail.......did the servos fail when the juice from the battery was low....with a small flat tip, push in the wire leads on the plug into the rx.....sometimes they can become loose and the terminals are just barely touching.

it might be because you have a stripped servo........you can either take it apart and see which gear it is and replace that, or just buy another servo.
