We answer that question specifically, but it is kind of buried in some long text, which is why we say to read the manual in its entirety. But to help clear things up a bit more, do you think maybe we should put it in the FAQ at the back?
Something like:
Problem: When I hit the throttle the green LED turns on, but the wheels spin the in the wrong direction.
A. Switch any two of the motor wires (example: switch from red to red and black to black to red to black and black to red)."
We are working on revisions now for the Driver's Ed Guide, so this is the perfect time to add anything that would help make things clearer; it's better if a user can solve a problem on their own, this way they won't be inconvenienced by having to call Tech Support and can get running much quicker. Plus it's one less phone call for me  Thanks!

I have a feeling that most people do not even read the manual... An addition to the troubleshooting/FAQ section may be helpful, or add it to the quick start instructions in the front???
