Hi there, I shall do as you suggest and double check the pot orientation. Meanwhile here is the translated instructions for the servo Thor-15, Google translate isn't the best IMO lol.
THOR 15 servo servo electronics Operating Instructions for Power Thor 15 Maximum voltage is 16 volts. RDSON 25 milliohms. Maximum continuous current is 18 amps. Momentary Power up to 50 amps. For battery and motor connection 1qmm Silicone cables are attached. Dimensions: 24 * 20 * 6mm BEC supply for receiver and servos 5 volts for receiver and servos are mounted on the servo connector available (thin red wire). Maximum current is 1000mA (enough for 1 servo, but is dependent on the cell number). This voltage is short circuit proof and protected against overheating. Warning: This means when overtemperature switch off this voltage and thus the receiver would be a power interruption (risk of accident)! So, perform extensive testing, preferably with loaded servos (rubber rings the servo load can simulate). Terminal of the servo Thor: The servo THOR 15 is gem. Switching scheme (analogous Thor 15 HC) connected as shown below. The potentiometer must be mechanically driven. If a different size of the pots facilitates the installation and the mechanical drive, so it can be unsoldered and replaced by another pot. The mechanical rotational movement of the pots should not be too fast, since the scheme otherwise "swings" and it comes to permanent readjustment of the movement. It is important to design the mechanical control play as possible and easily. OFF THE RECEIVER IF NO ADDITIONAL RECEIVER BATTERY USED: by tweaking the red wire in the power cord and connect a switch. Caution: • Before the first ride the range of the RC system should be checked, as this control is very hard switching edges! • If a fault of the regulator, it may happen that the motor starts even when the receiver!
