Are you running them off one channel or are you running them on seperate channels? If your running off one you have 2 options you can rewire the servo or buy a "reversing" y harness (recommended) like this one:http://www.rcdude.com/servlet/the-12...Reverse/Detail If you want to go the rewire route:There are four wires that must be switched in order to change the servo direction. Two are on the motor and 2 are on the potentiometer. Switch the red and green wires on the pot and the orange and brown wires on the motor.(at your own risk  )

If you only have a 2ch RX/TX you can run it with a servo reverser.

Just did this myself, ordered a servo, etc for 4ws for my losi micro crawler, and thought I could make the swap in the harness, but was wrong. I went the rewire route, take your time and it is worth it. Spend the $10+ on a soldering iron, it WILL come in handy.

Cant you pull the + and - wire out of the servo plug and reverse them and put them back in the plug? Is'nt that what a reverse Y harnes does?

Moving the wires like that on the plug is BAD... BAD BAD BAD... If you need to physically reverse a servo, soldering is the way to do it if you don't want to get a servo reverser... Or... Flip the servo horn 180* and add some linkage length... That'll reverse the servo on the spot... No rewiring, no cable or adapter.. You may also have to raise the mount point on the knuckle, too, the way it was done in the TLT's back when... |
