You either need to reset your throttle endpoints on the FXR, or you need to adjust the motor timing a bit.

You loosen the two little phillips screws on the endbell of the motor, and rotate the endbell just a bit.

I agree with JRH- reset your throttle trim on your transmitter to neutral and run the FXR initial calibration again...

There is also "reverse strength" setting on the fxr. If ya got it set up backwards (so forward is reverse and reverse is forward) a lower reverse strength setting could be working when ya go forward. Yes it can be messed up that bad.
