Post Pen Lift Servo Wrong Way?!

I just bought the kit and have been having fun assembling. However I have a feeling that the pen lift servo horn on the gondola is attached at the wrong angle or it is sending the opposite command!

When the 'pen down' command is sent either through the controller touchscreen or controller application the servo arm rotates towards the drawing surface raising the gondola bottom away from the drawing surface. When 'pen lift' is pressed the servo horn rotates back and the whole gondola is flat against the drawing surface.

I am presuming that the gondola should be flat against the drawing surface when drawing. I can't think how else it would make sense.

Any advice on this? Is it possible that the horn is just screwed on 90 degrees the wrong way? It is screwed in with poor access due to the rest of the gondola, how can I rectify this?

Thanks

OK looks like I fixed it in the setup part of the application.

Thanks!
