You need to clear this up. It's posted in the Electric forum, and you're calling it an engine. So far I'm clueless about your problem.

Did you break in the motor? on a brushed motor if you let it run for a little while lower voltage it allows the bushes to seat with commutator and allow better transfer of electricity, also make sure your brushes move freely in and out of the brush hoods if they are binding it won't allow the springs to push the brush in and make good contact, its also a good idea to put a few com drops on the commutator to help in the break in process..

and it make this high pitch noise, is that the motor or the esc?

the motor goes slower then faster,...
the speed fluxuates

Not only should you get some com drops in there, but it also sounds like you need to lube your bearings/bushings.
