roller. Open the throttle just enough that the motors begin to turn, and check the direction 

of rotation of each motor. You should always do this BEFORE you fit the propellers, and be 

careful not to use high throttle on the motors when no prop is fitted, or you risk damage to 

your motors. In order to change the direction of rotation of a motor, simply swap any two 

leads between the ESC and the motor.
