Contrary to popular belief at least with hobbywing esc's that i have used they don't have the ability to reverse rotation. The hall effect sensor placement i guess makes it to difficult to overcome in software.

Even in the manual under troubleshooting for a sensored setup the motor HW basically states you cant do anything to reverse rotation if your setup requires a rotation that doesn't match the more popular chassis setups - although I do think you should be able to do it in your radio.


Found this out there as well as an option to trick your ESC into working with a reversed setup and sensored motors
