So i solved the problem of my wraith going fast backward. Instead of fighting with the electronics, i flipped the axles. Glad i have the cms on its way for it.

What happens when you just filp (rotate) an axle 180°? The wheels go the other way. I looked thru all the settings in my esc software and i couldnt reverse the rotation of the motor. So i shaved the servo mounts off the axles and moved the 4 link to the other 2 bolt locations. All i need now is is the chassis mounted servo so that way i cab also bring the front wheel base back a bit.

Original problem was with the sensored setup, with the scx10 axles, the locker spins opposite the wraith axles. When i installed the scx axles, full forward was reverse and even at 100% reverse setting in the esc, i was still slow moving forward and full speed backward. So since you cant reverse motor direction on a sensored motor with the sensor wire in use, i had no other choice.

All you had to do was flip the motor mount onto the other side...

At the expense of interior interference. No thanks

I think were all guilty of over thinking things. I have to constantly remind myself to keep it simple. Ya live and learn.

Reversing the channel in the radio would have been my route.

I believe your correct. The scx axles dont allow it like the wraith axles.

Tried that too. All it did was go slow forward. And fast backward. Remember sensored motor.
