Not sure reversing channels will help; it'll just go to reverse is left etc instead :L it might be possible to do it by premixing the signal on the transmitter so that when the controller does the mixing it comes out correct, but the best way is to just resolder one of the motors... I do usually check that they're correct before shipping, but yours must have slipped the net :s

Ok no problem I just wanted to see if there was an easier solution before whipping out the soldering iron!

There are usually grub screws holding the shaft in on a brushless. Sounds like yours have gone walkabout!

If they are between 2 and 3 mm they are probably M2.5 which you can get here.

Thanks for that link Peter, I'll order some of those.

I've removed the heat shrink case from my brushless esc and soldered new wires to replace the servo lead and hard wired them into the nanotwo board removing the bulky lead and connector, I also soldered the power wires straight to the nanotwo and have taped the 2 boards back to back making one relatively compact unit.

I'm trying to make some motor mounts for the gear motors as my current ones take up too much space, does anyone know what the thread is for the holes in the front plate of the gear motors that come with Rory's kit?

I usually just use a cable tie to hold my motors in place :L

That had crossed by mind but I was worried about the motors moving backwards/forwards, are the cable ties sufficient to stop this?

[Rapidrory]

Usually it's fine if you do it up tight... if not, two cable ties, one at the front of the motor one at the back (not over the gearbox though) is more solid... either that or a little hot melt glue. I've really never had a problem with them shifting though.

I have, but I suck at construction
