E Erhy New Member Apr 10, 2022 #1 Hello, I search for a motor steered with own ESP32 software. I would like this: RC Jet Boot Motor Underwater Thruster 7.4V 16800RPM on https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33031534723.html but I don't understand why there is a CW and CCW version, because I think, if I change the polarity, the rotor change the direction. Thank you for discussion Erhy
