Retrieving ESC information after the `dshot reverse -m 1` command without the `dshot save -m 1` command will show:
```
Rotation Direction: reversed
```
after saving it with `dshot save -m 1` command, reversed direction will become new normal direction:
```
Rotation Direction: normal
```
To change direction again new `dshot reverse -m 1` command needs to be sent.
