Default esc prob. please help

I just got a used pede and I changed out the tx & rx with one I had and now when i hit the forward throttle it goes in reverse and when I hit reverse throttle it goes forward. And my servo isnt turning all the way to both sides. The servo worked fine in the other truck it was in.

thanx in advance

A little more info please.

What Radio and RX are you using?

Servo?

It looks like you need to reverse your throttle on you TX.

Sounds like you need to adjust the settings on your controller. Most have throttle reversing switches and other knobs for steering adjustments.

wow, I cant believe I didnt think to reverse the throttle
My own stupid mistake, But I cant figure out what the deal is with the servo. It is a traxxas 2055, It came on on my brand new pede. I figured I would put the better servo on this truck since my other pede is waitin for a brushless setup...21 more days
