Without seeing the signal you don't really know what its doing for sure.
I already checked it on an oscilloscope. It's just as I would want to see 50hz, 1-2ms on time. I think it's something to do with the ESCs startup. I'm going to try a different motor and if that doesn't work a different motor and ESC.
