We are proposing to thread an aluminum tube onto the shaft threads of the motor.
If it turns counterclockwise, it will tend to unscrew our propeller shaft!
Yes, it should be no problem to reverse the motor. This is done by rearranging the hall/phase wire sequence to the controller. It may take some trial-and-error but it is not really hard. There are some threads on how to do this.
Some controllers have a reverse function, but this typically limits the speed to some really slow setting in reverse.
