Default Mamba max pro and a brushless Novak Motor

I'm trying to make sure i have the wires set up correctly on my motor esc combo.

I set up the Censored brushless Novak motor the same way the mamba motor would be set up, But i don't know if thats right. How do i know the ESC is not running in reverse?

What color wire from the esc must be with what letter on the motor ?

A-red
B-white
C-black

The motor should be lettered on the endbell, and the esc is lettered on the same side as the wires

Thats the way i had them set up. Only the Esc has the Red, white and Black, but no letters,

the Motor has letters but they are pink, blue and orange.

I run a mamba max pro, per castles instruction, the red white and black wires don't have a specific polarity. If it runs backwards, reverse the wires, its ok to run red to black, white to red etc.

only A and C when you are running a sensorless motor.

The brushless motors are 3 phase motors so you can connect the wires in any order. If is is spinning the wrong way just reverse two of the wires. Im an electrician if that matters to you. I know these things.
