|  Help with throttle after installing centered Currie!!!
So I got my centered Currie installed and everything buttoned back together. I flipped the front diff like they say too and am assuming that is what reversed my throttle. Forward is reverse and reverse is forward. I flipped it on my DX4C and now goes forward with forward and reverse with reverse. My question is do I need to go into my ESC (mamba max pro) and change the setting? It really gets after it in reverse but not so much on forward. Assuming it's set up to have more forward get up and go than backwards.

yeah its best to go into castle link and reverse the motor in the software, especially if its a sensored motor.

It is sensored. Is there a setting to simply reverse it?

by chance did you unplug your motor? by just reversing two of the wires from the motor to the esc will cause it to run in reverse.

I didn't. I haven't touched anything but the axle and the front diff, but I will check to make sure.

Hey no problem! Any idea is a good idea! I've never ran any different axles either, but had to flip the front diff so I'm assuming that's what did it!

Do the setting on the castle link. I have read in many threads that it is bad to reverse the wires on a sencerd motor. The castle link is super easy to do and you can really tweak the way your rig accelerates and brakes.lots of options  |
