Default MFU hookup

Can someone help with wiring on HL MFU? Phil installed motors and HL in my Tamato M-51, but directions were always backwards. I got forward and reverse OK by switching motor plugs on the MFU but steering is wrong...left stick to right, right to left. What wires go where to get the steering alligned?

Would appreciate any assistance.

Ok first off unplug the deans connectors you have between the mfu and the motors. Then plug a pair in to one motor, test it if it runs the right way and keeps running when you steer then you have it wired correctly. Repeat this with the with the other connection, that should give you a tank that runs correctly.

Oh I see you've disconnected the wires, reconnected them and follow the above!

Thanks for the advice. I've connedted the wires in every concievable way and get either all backwards or no action al all. I reconnected the wires the way I had them to get forward-reverse straight, but will have to live with steering being oposit. Maybe I can change the TX steering controls.
