Then giving it full back will work fine.

    Somewhere in the system is protection against slamming the DC motor with reversed polarities. That is good, but when I tried to emulate that system in my code it did not work.

    Well, that's a completely different problem than what I thought you had. Why not talk to your friends at the R/C store and find out if they know of any controllers that let you go reverse from full forward. If they do, sell the controllers you have on Ebay, and buy the ones you want with the money?

    You might also be able to hack the speed controller if it is for a brushed motor. But you run the risk of breaking a $55 speed control. You could also build your own controller for a brushed motor, but easier to find one off the shelf that will do what you want, if it exists.
