Don't do that - if the ESC is set to forward/brake only, and the car only reverses, then the motor is spinning in the wrong direction. Not sure if the Xcelerin has a reverse rotation mode, if not, just swap any 2 wires on the motor (will need soldering iron).

It was going forwards in the first place until i crashed it but now only goes backwards!!!

Maybe i should of mentioned that first off (whoops) sorry

Have you checked that the silver switch on the topish right on your tranny?

When I used a Xcelorin it did that and the motor was running in reverse direction so I had to plug the speedo into the computer via the link cable and use the Losi software to change the rotation of the motor.
