you need to find the short to frame first.
Pull the battery and test the battery - often they have been damaged and cause the short.
Then you will need to check cable by cable, component by component. Start with the motor, check for shorts there.
Good luck

Fact of the week
The black box flight recorder was invented by Australian scientist David Warren in the mid-1950s. While initially met with indifference in Australia, his invention gained international recognition, particularly in the UK, and is now a mandatory piece of safety equipment on all commercial aircraft.
