    Another problem, sim tools work only if the sabertooth is connected with USB. the sabertooth connects and disconnects from usb continuously.

    You don't need to connect the Sabertooth with USB.
    You can try to invert the plugs on your motor which is heating.

    boys I still need your help, I noticed that I turn on the simulator start simtools I press you turn on Arduino LED rx on; when I try roll or pitch or yaw, or any other dof Arduino by a small movement signal then turns off the LED rx therefore no other type of movement

    UPDATE: I was able to isolate the problem but do not know how to solve. I try to explain; I have tried to cut the power to the motor 2, start the sim, start simtools works great. The moment also connect the engine 2 turns off the signal rx and Arduino stops rotating only in one direction of the potentiometer. help me please let
