Transmitter negative signals

Hi, this isn’t really about drones, more transmitter and receiver pairs but thought you might know something about it anyway :)

I am trying to run 2 brushless motors using 2 different channels from my flysky i6x transmitter and receiver. It works with the throttle channel (3) but i want to be able to run them using the right joystick (channels 1+2), which currently only works when on ‘zero’ in the bottom right corner, and increases as the stick moves upwards/right, but I want the motors to be able to spin in both directions.

I guess what I’m asking is, can I set the transmitter up to output a signal of 0 when in the middle (default position), with a positive signal when the stick is up or to the right, and a negative signal when it is down or to the left? Also, is a normal esc able to cope with negative signals like this?

thanks for any help
 
I have used a flight controller and BLheli suite to reprogram a set of ESCs to run bidirectionally, that will eventually be a land boat. I set them up on the left and right sticks to to operate in forward and reverse.
