Hi,

I have a brushless ducted fan motor with ESC, and need to run it without a receiver/transmitter.

Can someone give me the wiring diagrams on how to do it.

Regards,
Chanpreet

Unless you are an electronics expert (in which case you wouldn't need to ask for a wiring diagram), get yourself a "Servo Tester" and use that to tell the ESC how fast you want the motor to go. For example:
