Re: Backwards Mounted Motors

Just so you know, the easy way to reverse a motor is
'255 - intSpeed'

That way you dont have to deal with the If() statements.

And yes, CIM motors, have neutral timing. They run just as good forwards as they do backwards. I would defintely have a poke at the drivetrain. Even though it'll still probably be your problem to fix.
