smoking drill motors?

We are well into power distribution and onboard systems but when we hooked up our drill motors for a brief test, we got a small puff of smoke after they began to run (only 2-3 seconds had elapsed). A melted plastic smell was also apparent. Is this normal burnoff due to being new motors and being run for the first time or have we done something truly wrong?

Any advice is greatly appreciated...
