BL in reverse

[josh_smaxx]

Is it possible to run BL motors in reverse :confused: as in, say i wanted to convert my B4 into a mid motored car, and used the standard B4 gearbox, it would run in reverse at the moment, is there any way of reversing the motor?

if i swap any 2 wires around on my mamba it runs the other way. Not sure about sensored though.

As dan says, if you swap any 2 wires on a 3 phase motor then it will change the direction.

Not sure if it will do it any good though as the timing will then be retarded. And the issue of a sensor cable

Ye i know about the mamba, but i also have heard of you swap the wires round on an LRP sphere it blows up, i know im running a GTB but was wondering if someting similar can be alloyed with out it going pop.

I think the fact that its sensored means you will have issues.

Just stick a brushed in:thumbsup:

A GTB can be run in reverse (in profiles) and you could then swap your throttle direction (servo reverse). However I have no idea the performance this way or whether there is any risk. Email Novak tech!
