Default RE: Ultrafly PC-9

Help Please...

I just found out that my motor is running the wrong direction. I know this is simple, change the wires, but here is the situation:

Battery is connected to P20 Castle Creations Speed control Red to Red Black to Black. Motor leads from speed control are Red to Red Dot and + marked terminal on motor. White is connected to other motor terminal. I have two resitors attached one + to case the other neg to case. The gear box on this plane has a brass gear on the motor shaft output to a second gear on the propellor shaft. As I see it, this causes the propellor shaft to turn opposite of the motor. Has any else that assembled this plane or that knows more than me about electrics (not hard to do) seen this issue? Should I simply reverse the wires to the motor? This would put the Red Power lead to the negative terminal on the motor. Please help...
