Basics on connecting motor, ESC, and hand controller

Please forgive the stupid question from a complete newbie:
Could anyone point me to a basic guide on how to connect the electrical system— motor, ESC and a controller of some sort.
I’m sure there are instructions out there, if you could just point me to them, I’d really appreciate it.

Since this depends on the components used it will be hard to recommend one-fits-all tutorial

Basically

Connect + and - from battery to ESC with Antispark connectors

connect the 3 output of ESC to the 3 motor wires in any order

To connect remote control it also depends on the model you have and what type of ESC you want to connect to, most easy way is to just connect the PPM/PWM/Servo cable to the input of the ESC, consisting of a 5V, GND and Signal Pin
