Is it set for high powered brushed or brushed reversing. You want it on brushed reversing. i had the same issue and that solved my problems.

What condition is the motor in? New? Used? It could be a brush/commutator issue. The brushes might not be making good contact in reverse. I'd check and clean the motor, brushes, comm and try it again. Hope that helps.

have you looked at the brake/reverse curve. If you have a link go into the brake curve setting and make sure it looks more like a straight line from one corner to the other.
