    Confused on new fortrex

    Installed new Fortrex first time ever with a 36 volt. Upgraded everything from a 24v All wired up and turned it on and prop is spinning counter clock wise? I’ve never pay attention in past but I believe it’s backwards so did my partner? So we double and triple checked all working and batteries all looked good I opened foot peddle and swapped the Neg and positive termination inside and motor now spins clock wise. I’m starting to second guess what I did since it’s a brand new motor I put on. I know this is silly but it really didn’t look right for some reason once we turned it on?

    TM Prop is supposed to turn counter-clockwise. It is so the regular thread nut that holds the prop on doesnt loosen from the spinning, which it could if the prop spun clockwise

    Lol I’m sitting here looking at fan and walking around it. I see that I messed up by switching that ☺️ If I stood in front of motor it would’ve been going the right way. I must have been tired lol
