Sorry did not mention that, but yes I did have the throttle reversed. I have a Hobbywing Xtreme ESC in my 44.1 so am used to the calibration methodology.
Regarding it being a fake, it is possible of course. The box had the Hobbywing hologram and it all looked a proper retail quality box but I did not check the code with the website.
The vendor was very quick to respond and give me the return address, if it was a fake I would not have expected such compliance. We shall see. I have managed to get another second hand Hobbywing combo to rescue my sons race at the weekend which I will keep as a spare or sell on again.
