Default going nowhere fast

So I just wired up my bully build, and when I powered it up to test my questionable wiring skills, everything worked, except that my motors are spinning in opposite directions. I wired them both pos to pos and neg to neg. should I just swap the polarity on the one going the wrong way?

you have to wire the rear motor up the opposite way for them to turn the wheels the same way.

silly Q' but cant you just reverse the channel and make it run the other way? Does it run different fowards than backwards?

My Ax10 was running backwards when I got it and I just reversed the channel, it has since been rectified but was that bad for it?

problem is he has a moa rig, so 1 motor on each axle, if he reversed it using his transmitter then the rear motor still would not be turning the tires the same way as the fronts.
