Yep, thats why I have my mechanical reverse already completed. Got it out of a revo and modded it for my berg axles.

Really? That seems kinda drastic... lots of touching and resets then. But I don't compete, so no biggie.

I've been working on a device to rotate my axles around, so I only need forward.
