If you wire the esc in reverse then it will be in reverse all the time.

Im pretty sure in order to turn on reverse if it even has reverse, you need to go into the programming mode for the esc.

Use your manual.
A programming card will help also.


Where in Illinois are you from?

That is not the esc in your boat..
That is for brushed motors.


This is the esc you have.

If you NEED reverse then you need a slower boat.

No easier way to say it.

Formula Fastech has no reverse. Shockwave has it.
