a brushless motor SHOULD switch the way it turns with swapping the wires.

there is not a set way it should turn. they can turn both ways just as good

counter clockwise when looking at the prop from the back... but depends if you spin a L or R prop!

then swapping 2 wires should change motor direction

You should always check the motor turn direction before you hook up the flexshaft or it could unwind on you. The prop should blow air on you if it is turning in the right direction.
