Rover Problem - Is there a way to fix it on spot ? (vanilla)

Basically somehow I did put my RCS backside and I had no problems earlier, because I used WASD for the wheels and just did burn RCS in different directions, but now I switched my wheels to IJKL and now there is a problem.

That problem will be fixed for the next rover I launch, but I do not want to scrap this one ... yet.

So, Basically I do not use any mods yet and I know that KIS can rotate my RCS blocks, but can I do something to fix it in stock ?

Mapping my keys backwards is not going to work, because I do not want to screw the other vessels instead.

RCS blocks don't work quite like that, it's not possible to place them backwards. Even if you rotated them 180 degrees, they'd still fire in the same directions they do now when you use the translation keys (IJKL).

Basically I don't think there is anything you can do (at this point) without changing your keymapping.

Well, on Minmus low gravity the wheels do not have much of a traction and I have to sometimes use horizontal RCS to speed up or stop fast.

So there is no way to actually map them to the same buttons and only use RCS when it is activated ?

There is reverse steering on the motors, but not reverse motors option.

I am looking not only of way to fix the current rover, but my future rovers as well.

EDIT : I actually found out that on the big ones there is the same problem.

Maybe map my I and K in reverse and learn to hit back for forward wheels ?
