Issues with E-revo and Spectrum DX2.0

[suicideneil]

Well, using forwards as reverse & reverse as forwards will have the effects you describe. My suggestion would be to reset the throttle trims to neutral, reset any throttle reverse switches or whatever (cursed digital radios, whats wrong with a slide switch or pot), switch the motor wires back to normal, and then reprogramme your esc to the radio. if it runs backwards, then switch the motor leads (it is BL I take it). You should have proper throttle and brake/reverse control.

I know some radios have to have the throttle channel reversed from the get-go, but you'll have tp check that out for yourself.
