Cowlacious ST100 question

Hi all,
I just got an ST100 servo driver board from Cowlacious. First thing I noticed is that the servo is driving in the wrong direction. Have any users of this board run into this, and/or is there a way to reverse the direction of the servo, either at the motor or on the board? I can't flip the motor around - there isn't enough room in the skull. I dropped a note to Carl this morning, but thought I should tap the vast expertise on the Forum as well!

Otaku, if you need to reverse the servo turning direction and don't want to buy a servo reverser. You will need to open the servo up and swap the 2 motor wires around and also the 2 outside wires on the potentiometer. I have done this several times on my RC airplanes ( I was too cheap to buy a servo reverser :D )

EDIT: You posted a minute before me. I believe Hitec and Futaba servos like to turn the opposite way, so that may have caused a discrepency on one to another installation.
