Default Hurricaine pro setup problems

Ok, I've had this car for about 4 months now and have yet to break it in. Between it being damaged in shipping, Redcat Racing moving, and everything else going on I'm just starting to set it up. I've started breaking in the engine and noticed that the controller settings are set backwards. Left turns right, Right turns left, Accel is Decel and Decel is Accel. Is there a manual on thise controllers that I can get my hands on? If not, can anybody help me get this corrected?

Thanks

You most likely have the FM remote that has been recalled. Follow this link and you will get taken care of.

If it`s the digital radio there is a setting on the radio called REV-ST if it`s set to (on) stuff will be in reverse set it to off. And as for the shipping damage blame the post office or how ever it got shipped. All the info about the rev-st is in you manual. And if it is the fm radio you should read the above sticky about the recall on fm radios.

I checked my radio and it is the digital FM. I checked the setting for REV-ST and turned it on and it did go back to left left right right. I also figured out the throttle. It didn't come with a manual. Anyway, since this is recalled, I'll send it back and hope I get a manual with the next one. Thanks for all the info. You guys saved me a few more headaches.

Thanks
