Default Faster in reverse!!! WTF

Just got done hooking up my MMP with a Tekin redline brushless motor...

Took it outside for a quick test and noticed that it runs quite a bit
faster in reverse than in forward!!!!

The A,B,C poles are the same when connecting the motor to the ESC right?

A to A
B to B
C to C

Can i short out anything if i try to reverse polarity on the motor connectors?

Glad I could help

Iirc switching the wires around with a sensored motor will cause it to run erratically, cogging pretty bad. Uncensored motors its no big deal to switch em around even rotating wires have cured some of ny cogging issues.
