Replaced the boom after a crash.
All seemed to go well.
The boom assembly I purchased has a different CF pattern than the original.
The motors on the new boom spin in reverse of what they are supposed to.
Is there something I am supposed to do to get the correct rotation?
I have another Inspire 1 that I was able to use to check my connections.
Thanks

You have either got the left and right arms mixed up or they are connected the wrong way around.

If you have replaced the complete arm, than mixing up the arms is almost impossible: the arm marked as R is on the left of the aircraft.
Connections wrong way around is not possible: male and female connectors on the boom.

It's possible you've received a part where they switched the m1-m2 (or m3-m4) motor.
I suggest: open the motorcompartments and switch the motors.

You most likely put the CW/CCW arms in the wrong directions. You would need to switch it out for the appropriate side or contact the Support team for a repair service.

Check your assembly. DJI very rarely messes up on motor labelling.

You nailed it on the head. I swapped the motors and all is good. Thanks
