my esc and motor are freaking out, i cant even get off the start line without a nudge, is there a factory reset i can do so i can re-set up the esc to see if it works? i dont really wanna fork out for a new esc/ motor.

all that happens from turning on to giving up lol is tx on, car on, blue light 2 beeps, no matter how little or much throttle is screams, struggles to go (by that i mean its like its stuck and doesnt move) and i give up lol, any help will be much appreciated.

It could be that your gear mesh is set too tight, this can actually damage the motor. Set the gear mesh looser to make sure that's not the issue. Is this a brand new xceleron system that you've just insalled? If so, the radio's endpoints may needs to be setup with the esc.

Here's the pdf on setting up the xceleron system, and I copied a bit on calibrating the esc to the radio:

Electronic Speed Control Setup:
1. Please read all safety precautions prior to use.
2. Ensure installation is complete and all connectors checked for polarity, ready
for use.
3. Battery is charged and operational.
4. Set the Throttle and Brake throw on your transmitter to 100% (if they are
adjustable).
5. Set the Trim to the centered position.
6. Ensure that the Throttle channel is in the “normal” position and not “reverse”.
If in reverse when you perform step 8, the LED will stay RED until you set to
“normal”.
7. Turn the ESC power switch ON, the Green LED is on solid.
8. Locate the SETUP button on the ESC, press until the RED LED is ON solid.
9. Pull throttle trigger to the full throttle position, the Red LED will be flashing
and then Green LED turns ON solid.
10. Now push the throttle trigger to full brake, the Green LED is flashing, and
then Green and Red LEDs both turn on solid.
11. Release throttle to neutral position. The Green and Red LEDs are flashing,
and then will both be ON solid.
12. Turn off the ESC power switch; this saves the calibration to the ESC. You
have calibrated the ESC for your transmitter.
Note: Should you change transmitters or receivers you must
repeat the above steps to re-calibrate the ESC.

Hope this helps.
