Default Mmp calibration issues

Just got a Mmp from castle hook up all wires ran it frist with a Novak 13.5 seemed fine decided to back to brushed put on a 19t intergy and now I'm stuck on the faster reverse than forward problem. I have tired recalibrating switch to my fly sky radio tired it with a dx3e chamged settings in the castle link software. I'm lost. My setup

Mmp wired to Novak bec running a 3s and 2s max c ratings are 30. Hacked flysky.

What am I missing? I did try to reverse motor setting in the castle software still no go

Did you set the reverse power to 100% and the forward power to less on the ECS or something?

That 19t probably has a shit ton of timing, in the wrong direction.

About six degrees in the other direction should be good, so go to zero, then six more.

When you're switching between brushed & brushless, you're changing the setting in the ESC to match, correct?
Are you calibrating the ESC to the RX?
What ESC firmware are you running? AFAIK, 1.28 is the best crawler firmware to use. The latest version seems to have issues for us. I'm on the road and don't have my rig with me to double check.

Is this a Mamba Micro Pro or a Mamba Max Pro?

Max pro and yes I switched everything in castle link. I bought a cheap venom 35turn today and bam power. Then the motor smoked in ten minutes but I don't think that was the esc fault I was running it through some muck and it must have got splashed. But it worked right for a sec. Then I got to looking at the sensor motor I have 17.5 track star and the timing is set to zero on it. Should change this I never touched the timing on this motor thought I did but didn't. I really want to use this Damn 19turn and not the brushless setup it's going to the slash
