Need help motor goes faster reverse than forward
 
Trouble shoot me guys need some help new to this kind of stuff.

Give us some info so we can help. What motor, ESC, batt, in what car/truck?

Many times this can be solved by setting throttle to reverse on your radio and then resetting the ESC to radio.

Step 1. Switch the black and red motor wires.

Step 2. Be happy.

Only if it's an unsensored ( or brushed) ESC! Not good for any sensored system I'm aware of.

Switch only 2 at a time, any 2.... If that hasn't worked make sure the output setting from the esc is correct, run in reverse or forward.... Switching the radio will not do anything but reverse what way the throttle/brakes work....

If your getting full power in reverse, be persistent and keep switching your wires and throttle reversing on your TX. Something is bound to work.
