It doesnt matter what order you solder the motor if it is sensorless. If it is spinning the wrong direction switch any two to reverse the direction.

Looking from the back of the motor the tabs go A (left tab) B (middle tab) C (right tab) though there should be markings on the can showing this .... The RX8 will run almost as smooth sensorless as it does sensored (which is VERY smooth) ......
