    Propellers and motors

    I am building a Engle MKVII/c and I am setting up my motors, which are bushed and I am useing 2 Graupner speed controllers. I removed the red on one moter so I am only useing 1 BEC and they run great on 2 sticks.
    My question is the props look to beone set truning one direction and the other turning the other. So do I set one moter up clockwise and the other counter clockwise to run forward, or do the moters run the same direction because the props are left and right. Thanks for the answer

    Wire things up so that, going 'ahead':

    looking forward, the starboard propeller turns clockwise. The port propeller turns counter-closckwise.
