Hey Guys,

I pulled the old Emaxx out of the moth balls this past weekend and threw a few packs in to see if it still ran. It does indeed run, but when I hit the throttle It goes, but when I hit reverse it seems to have twice the power and with just a little blip of the throttle in the reverse direction, it wants to flip on its lid.... any ideas? It is a Novak HV system. THanks

I am using a Spektrum DX3R and SR3100
 
Check your EPA on the throttle.

I checked all of the sub trims... and all are at 0. Not to ask a dumb question.. but I thought EPA was only for servos? I will go back and check though just to make sure. Thanks!

Wasn't really thinking, but I meant your expo rate on your throttle

sounds like the motor direction is reversed....switch it around in your ESC or swap any two of the three wires on your motor and see what happens

I looked at the wires and re-soldered.... It still seems to be very punchy in reverse.... maybe a few pictures with the top off will help? This is very odd. I'm not exactly a rookie when it comes to RC, but I am no expert either. This one is really stumping me....
