Just had a problem setting up my GTB to run 4 cell 19. I have a local track who doesn't believe in current technology and I wanted to race so I switch out my 5800 and put a 19T in and set the GTB to the brushed mode and then the set up for the trigger. The motor sputters at full throttle and goes twice as fast when I reverse the trigger. The motor is spinning the same direction but goes faster when I reverse the trigger??? Positive wire (red) to motor pos and GTB pos and battery pos, the orange, yellow and blue go to the neg on the motor. Did I get a bad speedo?? I had checked the wiring and it still isn't working. I didn't buy a GTB for the brushed mode but I wanted to race locally today and was unable to w/o a speedo??? Anybody else have this problem?

Hi, You have do to the one touch Setup, THEN, Switch to Brushed mode.

If you switch to Brushed Mode First, then do one touch, it resets to the default Brushless Mode.

So currently, your ESC is set to BL mode and connected to a BR motor, simply redo the "Mode Switch" and it'll be fine.

Thanks.
