Default In which order to plug the wires?

I have a Mamba Monster ESC on which i am to connect the motorwires. But in what order?

The ESC is not saying anything of "A", "B" or "C" or similar on the motorside, just + and - on the battery side. If i could just know which wire on the motor -or which connector on the ESC- that is the signal one, this would be helpful. The other wires can simply be relocated if the motor reverses when supposed to go forward. Or maybe i can reverse the radio?

Here is a pic of the motor from my RC8e to rally-thread:





And a bad one of the ESC, not that important maybe:

Sensorless doesn't require the motor wires to be in any order, if the motor spins the wrong direction just switch the position of any two wires and that will reverse the motor direction...

Ok, so there isn't any given "signalwire" or connector on the ESC, more like on a servowire? The only brushless setup i am familiar with is on my Rustler VXL, the ESC- and motorwires are colourcoded, so i thought this had something to do with one being signal, + and -

Well, then i just connect them and see if the car goes sideways or in reverse

Thanks for your reply by the way.
