The electrical gremlins are what brought him to life.
If you have multiple ESCs plugged into the receiver, its always a good idea to only have one of them supply power. Its entirely possible that one or both motor controllers were damaged when their BECs supplied slightly different voltages through the receiver and burnt out.

Looks like when Johnny 5 repaired himself 😅
Is this an old video, or is there a Judd 2.0❤
