Default Forward and Reverse are opposite

Hi
recently purchased a used Losi SCTE with a Tekin RX8 and Airtronics transmitter.
When I pull the trigger it goes in reverse and vice versa.

I'm able to reverse the motor using the ESC but I'm wondering if the wiring of the motor is reversed, i.e. positive to negative instead of positive to positive.

I looked at the tekin schematics and it the "C" tab on the motor is hooked to the "C" tab on the ESC, however, on the ESC, instead of a black wire its red.

Im thinking the polarity is reversed?
Help!
