Default unproportional forward reverse

I am using a CC sidewinder with a 50t brushed motor, 3s lipo ....

I have used this esc before with no problems. Now after switching to a different radio, the forward and reverse are not proportional. forward and 10000000 x's stronger than reverse. i have plugged it into the castle link into the computer and got everything setup right

here is shot of the castle link setup. I have the throttle epa's set equal at 125 too on the tx.

any ideas. I have moved the epa setting around to see if that was the problem but it didnt work. Oh, and this is on a JR xr3i

okay so here is the weird thing.

the only way it will calibrate is if the throttle direction is in reverse. so brake and forward and vice versa. once it is calibrated all I usually do is just switch the direction back to normal and it has always worked just fine.

Hey, the castle stuff has a set forward and reverse. Different fets for each. You need to reverse your motor wires.
