Reversed steering problem zzse

Post by Sporttracguy »

Ok pimps, maybe you can help me out on this one. Im sure if i tinker with it long enough i can figure it out but i have a feeling you guys can save me alot of time and energy.

Ive been working on my buggy steering (its zzse steering) and i managed to knock the pot loose. Well i got everything all lined up and all but now my steering is reversed (i steer right the car steers left type of thing) Its straight but just reversed . Im guessing i have the pot adjusted upside down maybe?

My question is, can i just reverse the steering motors wires to get her steering the correct way or am i going to have to fuck around with the pot? Maybe switch the green and yellow wires on the pot? Any help would be great,

Thanks

well, i couldnt take it so i started fooling around with wires. Switching the steering motor doesnt work, switching the yellow and green wires on the POT doesnt work.....That may work if i also switch the steering wires in the TX the same way? but who knows.... so yeah, im still stuck,, any ideas?

yup.. the pot and motor work together, therefore you have to swap both at the same time

Ok guys, ill try switching both sets of wires. I already tried the switch on top of the remote and that only reverses the throttle not the steering :o but of course that makes sense since that is only to switch from right to left handed, the steering wouldnt change.

Ill let you guys know how it goes

Thanks
