Help! Drone motors 2 & 3 in wrong direction, not possible to switch using Betaflight. USB defective, any way to access ESC Configurator using WiFI connection?
Basically the title. Betaflight works using WiFi, but the motor direction change does not apply. Any way to connect it to the ESC Configurator? Maybe is there a Bluetooth or USB thing I can wire to the FC?

Switch the two outer wires from the motor to the ESC around and leave the middle one as it is.
Maybe a dumb suggestion, but physically switch the positive and negative wires on the motors?
This is the answer.
If it's a DC whoop style motor, switch them.
If it's a BLDC with the standard three wires, just swap two of them, pick any two and swap them.
Have you tried using the betaflight CLI to set the motor direction? Do other changes you try to make persist in betaflight?
Yes other changes persist! I’m giving this a go, if it won’t work I’ll reverse the two outer wires of the motors.
