3 Have you swapped motors to verify it's the motor and not the ESC?

793 It could be a bad connection on the FC-to-ESC wiring harness, so before swapping any motors try re-seating both connectors by unplugging and re-plugging them. And while they are out, use a magnifying glass to check inside the sockets for any bent or damaged pins.

0 I did my best checking the wiring connections and I didn't notice anything unusual, so I will probably proceed by checking if its a motor or esc issue

793 So if you've swapped the motor with another known good working one, and you've also swapped the ESC with a known good working one. and the ESC signal connection wire is fine then it can only be a fault with the motor output on the FC itself. Either a firmware mapping issue or a hardware issue. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with KISS hardware and software so I don't know it it's possible to accidentally unmap a motor output using the KISS configurator software.
