I just got an Arrma Notorious 6s V5 and thought I was crazy thinking it was faster in reverse. Followed your directions and it worked like a charm. Thanks for the video!
Man I've heard of switching the motor leads around, but i didn't know if ppl meant on the motor can or at the connector ends. Got a losi mino rock crawler for my son, upgraded to a hobbywing 1080 esc and it was faster in reverse than forward. Tried to program it, reverse the throttle, switching motor leads worked, then I still had reverse steering but I just flipped the steering reverse switch and called it a day. I get full throttle, and forward is forward...thank you brotha!!!
I just recently converted my HPI e-Firestorm 10ht to brushless, and had the reverse going faster than forward. You just solved my problem, and I think you're video showed up first when I looked this up. Thank you.
Man. Thank you. I just put a 4s system in my big rock. Same thing happened. And yes RUclips is the best way to find out how to do whatever you need to do.
This video saved my life!! Lol it took me forever to figure out that my steering was reversed and then when I️ fixed that it seemed like my buggy was way slower than it should be! But this fixed it! Thank you sir!!
Thanks for the video, I just bought a Spektrum Firma ESC and motor combo for an upgrade for my DT03, it was running faster in reverse, so I searched and found your video, and it worked perfectly!!! thanks again!
This worked on my redcat racing blackout xte pro. Just purchased it and had the same exact issue, reversed two of the three wires to the brushless motor, that solved it and is now working properly! Thank you!!! :-)
yeah man fixed my car with your methods you're a good man for posting this! subscribed right away. please keep making help videos you actually explain stuff slowly and carefully enough to pay attention to!
if you've got the ESC backwards the brake will be messed up too, it'll go reverse, brake forward, but instant forward to reverse... so this fix will repair that to, so you'll have forward brake reverse, and reverse to throttle with no brake.. ESC backwards will do: Forward>Reverse (no brake) Reverse>Brake>Forward ESC the correct way will do: Forward>Brake>Reverse Reverse>Forward (no brake) Kinda tough to explain, and of course this is all dependant on the ESC type and programming.
Thanks man this TOTALLY helped a ton, i tested it out shortly afterword and the problem was immediately solved after switching the wires. This video was so helpful in solving my problem!!!!
Thanks. This was the fix for a Traxxas I just bought off eBay..I was stumped why it was running so fast in reverse and so slow if forward... o wonder the previous owner sold it! What a edging difference this made in fun level!! Cheers bud for posting this.
Thank You! I just got a castle sidewinder 3 and it ran backward. Reversed the controller but then it was slow forward, fast reverse. Switched wires and set the controller back to normal for the fix. The instruction manual from Castle didnt even mention this as a possible issue.
Thanks a bunch I just finished running my talion an notice it wasn't perform ing like it normally would. I just put a new hobbywing esc in an notice it wasn't pulling up in the front. But pulling up in reverse I did everything from use the program card to rest control s.didnt work didn't think about I put abc from motor on wrong . Saw your video. My car had to much power in reverse. Switch everything around. Rest my esc with program card. Did a test with it in my hand holding it the thing flew out my hand an landed on the ground got my power back thks again.
Thank you very much my brahddah!!! For making this video I been looking all over the internet to find something that helped and finally I found your video. (This helped me with a budget rc I rebuilt everything was good but the reverse and thottle ) I'm new to the hobbie Aloha from Maui brahddah
Thanks dude, I could be able to solve this issue, actually I imagine this solution and I change the wires (inverce the polarity) or at least I supposed I did, how ever, the second time worked great. Now goes faster in forward.
if that's this years, then yes, i cant remember which number it was, but my "backslashed" slash 4x4 buggy was "king of the ring" looped the fullpipe 2 times consecutively.
dosent that screw with the brake because ive tried that only works sometimes because the brake gets reversed wen u switch the controller so when u go forward and hit the brakes it snappes straight into reverse
I have one problem While im reversing and then stop doing that it braking on its own. But when im going foward its running fine and when i want to i can brake but while reversing is doing that on its own. Please help :D
yeah like when I go in reverse the esc shows a green light. Then to go forwards I have to get over the braking safety to go forward and the esc shows a red light when moving forwards.
Hi I was thinking if maybe I can make my reverse go forward with my throttle so It has forwards and reverse together in the throttle. If this is possible please let me know
All the videos i find are with the traxxas transmitter i cant find one with the spektrum lol but i reversed b n c but i didnt have luck...i got the speed tranferred to the front but it was still reversed on the control unfortunately
with a spektrum you can see it's reversed, make sure it's the correct way on the TX and then flip wires on the motor until it runs the correct way based on the TX, the reason this happens on traxxas is because poeple set it backward unintentionally and then it's set to like 20% power on reverse so people dont shred gears.
Hi, my rc car has the problem of it going faster in reverse than forward, but I'm not sure really how to do that on my Traxxas TQ transmitter. If you can please let me know how i can fix it, that will be really helpful.
you just need to swap the motor wires and use the TX manual to reverse the throttle channel, all TX's will be different so you need to do a little research on your particular model.
you can do it by also swapping a couple of wires on the sensor wire, however with sensored i really dont think this is your problem, there's likely some other solution for your problem.
what does he mean by censored and uncensored. I have a brush less ere voodoo vxl and have the same problem but I don't want to mess it up even more, can someone plz let me know?
you'll know sensored because it will have an additional plug with a set of tiny wires, bu chances are if you don't know the difference, its probably sensorless. Sensored is usually only used in on-road or competitive race cars/trucks.
Oh thank you because I have a velineon brushless and I just switched now it works perfectly fine. I wasted 45 bucks on a new ESC which I apparently didn't need. LOL thank you for this awesome video
9 YEARS LATER AND THIS STILL WORKS THANKS FOR THE HELP GOD BLESS

THANKS HEAPS NOW MY ROCK CRAWLER IS FASTER FORWARD THAN IN IT WAS IN REVERSE . MUCH LOVE FROM AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺
This video saved my life!! Lol it took me forever to figure out that my steering was reversed and then when I️ fixed that it seemed like my buggy was way slower than it should be! But this fixed it! Thank you sir!!
Old video, but another life saved! Lol,,, Thank you my friend
No problem 👍
10 years later and this method still worked on my spktrum firma 85a esc and motor combo.
Thanks for the video, I just bought a Spektrum Firma ESC and motor combo for an upgrade for my DT03, it was running faster in reverse, so I searched and found your video, and it worked perfectly!!! thanks again!
Which cables did u switch and how did u leave ya settings on the remote?
This worked on my redcat racing blackout xte pro. Just purchased it and had the same exact issue, reversed two of the three wires to the brushless motor, that solved it and is now working properly! Thank you!!! :-)
yeah man fixed my car with your methods you're a good man for posting this! subscribed right away. please keep making help videos you actually explain stuff slowly and carefully enough to pay attention to!
This method is tried, tested and true! Good thing you were there that day.

ESC backwards will do:
Forward>Reverse (no brake)
Reverse>Brake>Forward
ESC the correct way will do:
Forward>Brake>Reverse
Reverse>Forward (no brake)
Kinda tough to explain, and of course this is all dependant on the ESC type and programming.
This is my pro lem but i cannot unplug my motor it has no plugs on it
Thanks man this TOTALLY helped a ton, i tested it out shortly afterword and the problem was immediately solved after switching the wires. This video was so helpful in solving my problem!!!!
Really helpful i was stressed finding the problem solving video
Thanks. This was the fix for a Traxxas I just bought off eBay..I was stumped why it was running so fast in reverse and so slow if forward... o wonder the previous owner sold it! What a edging difference this made in fun level!! Cheers bud for posting this.
Thanks. This video helped me fix my GoolRC motor problems.
Thank You! I just got a castle sidewinder 3 and it ran backward. Reversed the controller but then it was slow forward, fast reverse. Switched wires and set the controller back to normal for the fix. The instruction manual from Castle didnt even mention this as a possible issue.
I was getting pissed and watched this video thanks a lot this was exactly my problem
Thanks man. Bought 2 motors. Thought the first one was messed up. Works great Now... Got the dhk hunter 4x4 with a castle side winder 3
Omg thank you it worked I finally fixed my traxxad summit 1/16 from after 6 and a half months k robs to this dude
Thanks man! Its really help! All fix now. 💪💪💪💪💪
Yoooo. That just worked for me. Thank you sir. Much appreciated.

I appreciate your help man I was able to fix my car with your method thank you🏎
Thank u brow !! My mad crusher is happy and faster fwd now !! From Brazil !!!
Thank you. This is the exact problem I had with my used Slash 4x4! Works perfectly now!
ive tried switching wires and controller settings over n over n it still goes faster in reverse, is there anything else to try?
Thanks dude, I could be able to solve this issue, actually I imagine this solution and I change the wires (inverce the polarity) or at least I supposed I did, how ever, the second time worked great. Now goes faster in forward.
Thanks mate 👍👍 sorted mine thanks to your video 👌
if that's this years, then yes, i cant remember which number it was, but my "backslashed" slash 4x4 buggy was "king of the ring" looped the fullpipe 2 times consecutively.
Thanks a lot, this helps for me! Strange thing that my ESC and motor had equal colours, but has different way:-))
dosent that screw with the brake because ive tried that only works sometimes because the brake gets reversed wen u switch the controller so when u go forward and hit the brakes it snappes straight into reverse
Thanks a lot. Fixed the problem in about one minute
Skip ahead to 4 mins!
i have a senssored, how do i fix it?
thanks buddy, what I thought was f***ed, fixed in two mins
Thankyou man thats really help me👍🤟
I have one problem
While im reversing and then stop doing that it braking on its own.
But when im going foward its running fine and when i want to i can brake but while reversing is doing that on its own.
Please help
:D
Thanks alot this worked for me watching in 2018
Thanks man! BTW how bright is the sun inside of your home? Bahahahahahaha
Hey nice last name I have the same last name as you
Does this work on a brushed motor too?
This totally helped me out, thank you!
3:08 thank you for video.
yeah like when I go in reverse the esc shows a green light. Then to go forwards I have to get over the braking safety to go forward and the esc shows a red light when moving forwards.
Man....Thank you very much.!! Been for every with this prob.
What about a brush motor?
Hi I was thinking if maybe I can make my reverse go forward with my throttle so It has forwards and reverse together in the throttle. If this is possible please let me know
Saved me a headache thanks!
Thanks alot just saved my rc car a from a terrible fate
Thanks hope this works I got a new one yesterday
will this work on blackout xte brushed..!?! thanks
Holly crap come on with it good stuff..
you're welcome
Thx, Explained it perfectly and this fixed it. If only I could reverse my life now 🤪
You forgot the lights part of lights camera action
Gravedigger says "Thanks!"
Still little confused when you switch the wires does it mess anything up because. my is color coded and my engine is senseless
no, the wire colours don't matter, it wont hurt anything
Thanks
I just got my first poison spyder wraith and it was doing that now thanks to your video its perfectly fine thanks a bunch
Thanks soooo much. btW anybody wondering it works with brushed too😊😊😊😊😊
What happens if we do that and it just acts like it’s skipping or grinding.
sounds like your gear mesh is too tight
Mine is doing this reverse is fast then when i trigger forward it brakes the goes slow forward BUT i cannot switch the wires in my brushless motor
the ESC might have a programming option to reverse the motor, do that and then reverse the channel on the radio and that should fix it.
All the videos i find are with the traxxas transmitter i cant find one with the spektrum lol but i reversed b n c but i didnt have luck...i got the speed tranferred to the front but it was still reversed on the control unfortunately

@TRCCtv i guess ill have to keep trying...i only switched the b and c with no luck i guess ill have to switch the a
Hi, my rc car has the problem of it going faster in reverse than forward, but I'm not sure really how to do that on my Traxxas TQ transmitter. If you can please let me know how i can fix it, that will be really helpful.
Did you ever find this out
you just need to swap the motor wires and use the TX manual to reverse the throttle channel, all TX's will be different so you need to do a little research on your particular model.
I know it's years later but what is a fix if it's a sensored motor?
you can do it by also swapping a couple of wires on the sensor wire, however with sensored i really dont think this is your problem, there's likely some other solution for your problem.
Thanks. Helped me with mine
Thanks this works well
Thank you so much
Nice. Video. But Anyone can help me, my esc sensored is reverse, how i can fix that ?
just bought a brushless and reverse has no power and speed. Forward goed a bit faster as brushed motor, traxxas bigfoot
it worked thanks!
Thanks mate helped me
Thank you!!
Thanks bro
sounds like drag brake.. that's going to depend on your radio.
typically
Changed the pinion gear put back together and now nothing esc is blinking red redcat 1/10
Fixed mine thank you
hey bro, my car goes forward but will only brake when im going in reverse. Any idea what that is or what i may have done?
i have a jlb cheetah transmitter
Hi, did you find an answer, I have the same problem.
Yea, i had to swap my motor and esc wires. Switch and reconnect any 2 wires until its working correctly
Or u may not be going fast enough to brake
Hi Again. The car did work well when i first got it, do you think i still need to move wires around?
you are awesome thank you.
np bro ;)
Thank you!
what does he mean by censored and uncensored. I have a brush less ere voodoo vxl and have the same problem but I don't want to mess it up even more, can someone plz let me know?
you'll know sensored because it will have an additional plug with a set of tiny wires, bu chances are if you don't know the difference, its probably sensorless. Sensored is usually only used in on-road or competitive race cars/trucks.
Oh thank you because I have a velineon brushless and I just switched now it works perfectly fine. I wasted 45 bucks on a new ESC which I apparently didn't need. LOL thank you for this awesome video
yeah the vxl is definitely not sensored
OK thank you once again for this great video!
You saved my ass thanks bro
What if I have a sensor motor
then this is not your problem/solution
@@TRCCtv ok
Problem solved! Thanks a lot earned a sub from me :)
ty ur a life! saver
Life saver
thanks
worked.
I've got forwarded only does any one no why
race mode perhaps, some escs have this for some racing classes that dont allow reverse
good vid! very useful info! B>)
Thanks! :)
You need more light
Is it the motor are the ESC that can't be sensored
carlos miles doesn't matter if they are sensored as long as you're running it in non sensored mode.
ty,ty
yea ok duh makes sense. thanks
Your the fucking man thank you so much
