Reverse the motor direction with a switch output

Hello,

I connected a brushless motor to the motor controller shown in the picture. I was able to rotate the motor using the throttle control on the transmitter, but it only spins in one direction.
This motor controller has a reverse switch wired in, and when I turn on this switch, the motor rotates in the opposite direction.

When using this motor controller, is there any other component that can be used to enable both forward and reverse rotation using only the throttle control on the transmitter?

I would appreciate any insights you may have!


Yes, you need a relay controlled by the FC added to the controlswitch of the ESC
And you have to configure your FC like the “brushed with relay” function.

Thank you. I’ll try this.
