The middle one goes in the middle (  ) an the two on each side can be switched around to reverse the polarity like on brushed motors.

Doesn't matter how you hook them up. If it runs backwards, swap any two wires. | |

Yes, lets say the middle wire is the first one you grab, just make sure it gets plugged into the middle wire coming out of the ESC. JK, it dosn't matter, just plug all three in and like Scattman said, if it's backwards swap any two leads. |

That is a GWS motor with one of my old motor plates, you can run it on up to 3s lipo or 10 cell nimh. Try to volt it as high as you can, and gear it as low as possible.
