Thanx Steve but having trouble with the pot luck theory. Concerned with stuffing speedie or motor. Is there a danger?

Hi Wayne

No Danger in damage To Esc, and it does not matter at all what color wires.

Basically a Brushless Motor requires 3 wires to power the motor.
Power is being applied in bursts From Esc from the wire 1, then wire 2, then wire 3.
This is were Timing comes into it as timing tells how quickly or slowly it sends power to motor between each wire.

Swapping Wires just makes the motor alternate its Direction but does not alter Timing and power to It.

I hope that sort of explains the basic principle.

Steve
