Default AE XP3 2.4 Radio problem.

Well it started when I turned in the steering tension screw a bit too much and it unlatched something inside. I could hear pieces bouncing around in there so I decided to crack it open to fix it. About an hour of tinkering around I got it sorted out.

Now when I went to dial the adjustments in I noticed the trigger has opposite affects: push out - car goes forward, pull in - car goes in reverse. First thing I immediatedly did was change Ch2 on the the servo reversing switch. Still does it. I even flipped 1 and 3 just for fun with no luck.

I opened the radio back up and everything seems to be in order except when I removed the servo reversing part and noticed the black wire going to #1 has broken off. I don't know if it was like that or I damaged it while opening the unit even thought I used the best care. The switch going to that wire is grinded off so I think this has been used for something else and that was not needed.

Thanks for looking and hope to hear your solutions!!

If its a brushless motor swapping any two wires will reverse the direction

There are three wires connecting the motor and esc, swap any two of them

Probably a temporary solution as you should get your radio checked over
