Default Reversed Trim

Hello,
I have my Eclipse 7 setup for my Eco-8 using a 3 x 90 deg swashplate geometry as found at: [link=http://www.helihobby.com/html/eclipse_7_for_eco.html]Eclipse for Eco[/link].

It works great accept for the fact that my fore/aft trim is backwards! It really boggled me for a while why I was having a really hard time trimming the heli until I visually noticed that the swashplate was moving the wrong way when I used the trim.

Does anyone know why this has happened and is there a way to fix it? I guess I will just change it to a 3 x 120 deg swashplate setup which the Eclipse can handle properly.

Thank you,
John K.
