My Motor Is Spinning Backwards! What Do I Do?
by Motion RC
If your motor is spinning opposite of your desired direction, do not fret! Reversing a motor is very simple. The vast majority of modern RC electric aircraft, including all of the electric aircraft we sell here at Motion RC, use a 3 Phase Brushless Motor. These motors have three wires coming out of them, which plug into the three bullet connectors on the aircraft's ESC. To change your motor's direction, simply swap ANY TWO of the three wires. It does not matter which wires are swapped. Ensure the battery is unplugged when you do the swap.
