|  MOA motors timing and direction
I bought a used xr10 with a pair if Holmes hobbies 35t on it. I noticed both motors are set exactly the same. See picture below. Both motor's positive terminal are on the left. And the timing are both set at same place, see the green marker. I used my sportman esc to drive the motors and they both rotate to the same direction, in other word, one of the esc that was on the MOA rig must be set at reverse direction. but does it mean one of the motor will not be running at optium efficiency because of the 'negative' advance timing..... Am I correct? Should I rotate the end bell on one of them 180* and set 6* advance timing on it? I am new to this MOA stuff, so any comment will be appreciated. Thanks.  |

You are correct. The rear motor should be reversed and given negative timing. It should spin slightly faster in forwards than at zero timing.

Might want to just set them both to zero timing - works great for a crawler.
