Sorry guys :lol:

I have just fitted my new EZrun 9t to my fire dragon and after quite alot of pondering over the setting up bleepy menu's I finally got there aside from one small problem...

She runs backwards :blink:

All the wireing is correct and the wires to the motor are colour coded so you should not be able to get that wrong however the trouble shooting just says to swap two of those wires round.

So does that happen alot? Is there something I am missing? All the throttle ranges seem correct, the lights do as they should (ie red light then green at max) If I tap backwards on the stick once nothing (brake) if I tap back again the car goes forwards, if I push forwards once the car goes backwards.

So I guess the question is, should I just swap two wires round between the esc and motor so they are no longer colour matched? I cant have the cable to the reciver the wrong way round can I? I am guessing that would not work at all.

Cheers

Ok I swapped the wires (risked it :blink: ) All runs normally now :lol:

I have now found out my battery is pants though as it stutters on start so punch is now set to the lowest and I still get a slight stutter :lol: Time to invest in something better.

Also where do people mount the on off switch? It wont go in the tamiya location but if I mount it in the car I wont get to it, so can it go on the out side of the tub?

It doesn't really matter what order three wires are connected in. Some combinations will make the motor turn one way, the rest will make it turn the other.

On my DF03, I've mounted the switch on the outside of the tub on the back part. Seems to be OK - it's stuck on with some No More Nails tape.

You could try mounting on the bit in between the rear body posts?
