Default Vortex EPX Pro ESC problem

OK, my Vortex has been cooling its heels for a bit waiting for a new spur gear... now that I got it, and put the truck back together, the ESC is acting strange.

I plugged the battery in, fired it up, and it's running in REVERSE! [sm=confused.gif] I haven't played with the servo reversing on the radio, and I didn't disconnect the motor wires, so what the heck?!?!

OK, so to get around that, I reversed the channel on the radio - now it goes forwards, but the reverse is dodgy at best.... it seems more sensitive to throttle neutral... I can dial it in with the throttle trim, but when I try to reverse, there's lots of sputtering and jerking, and it eventually backs up... but nothing like it did out of the box.

I've tried playing with the endpoint adjustments on the radio, but it doesn't seem to make much difference.

Any suggestions?
