 | | 05 Jun 2008 12:11 PM | | I have my ESC hooked up with one battery. I have good steering, good forward speed but only one prop turns in reverse. What could be going on.

| | 05 Jun 2008 02:57 PM | | But I would guess he's got them wired in series. JK. If both motors are running fine in the forward direction, and only 1 runs in reverse, hum how does he do that.
Start at the beginning.
Not sure really, can you by hand rotate either motor and prop in either direction, and you feel no binding? | | | Its better to give than to receive.
