t-rex 600E motor turns wrong way ?

[kb8ife]

Hi all

I have a t-rex 600E night flyer that I have 10 flights on and all Was well,, last night I when to fly and would not turn the head only spin the main gear,, the motor turns backwards What happened.
I know if you change two wires on the motor it will turn in the other direction ?
thx jim

I use a 6s for the main,, a 7.4 for the radio, and a 7.4 for the lights.

You can reverse any two of the three motor wires or you can reverse the direction in the ESC settings. Reversing wires is probably easier...

Like cheetah says, it's easy to reverse.

You said you had been flying prior though correct? Provided you haven't fooled with the motor or ESC between then and now, I'd check to make sure the ESC didn't reset or something weird.

If you have the Align ESC.....just do the wires.

If it's a castle ESC and you have a link, do it through software. While you're there, check the other settings.

Ok like i said it was working fine,, What happened to make it turn around ? and if I change two wires and fix it now will it turn around again later.
I hate problems.

So maybe some one reversed it and it went back to default I got the heli used as it is.
thx all jim

I have never heard of this happening "spontaneously".

Unless you have some jokers that you fly with who switched two of the motor wires, I'd be pretty nervous with that ESC.

I did change 2 wires and it now turns the right way and I have control of the rotor speed I did not before.

I have no idea why the thing after 10 flights changed rotation. people thought I was kidding them about a night flight when it turned the wrong way,, I was not going to work on it in the dark.

thx all jim

IMHO you have not disonected motor plugs from ESC, so the real problem is in the ESC. It does not detect the wiring correctely. It must select the power automatic, not depend of wiring. But it does not...after 10 flights...try to programm the ESC first.
