Two Motors, One ESC "Is Their Any Way?"

[TDC57]

Where is the sense of adventure in that (?) same old same old thing. I say go for it!, I installed (2) Vellums’ in my e-Maxx when they said it couldn’t / shouldn’t be done and it worked great!.. Nothing ventured nothing gained..

Go for it!..

Go for it!..

i agree, how are we suppose to learn and make better rc cars if we don't try something new/different, i say go for it!

i say go for it if you can afford the cost of losing everything. if this is the case, then why not try something different. :)
but if youve only got 1 chance (like me) and u cant afford to screw it then stick for the converntional method as boring as it is.

LOL, you know we are spoiled with the power of BL when we consider "conventional" setups boring!

I'll add my $0.02: Unless you are going for ultimate torque (pulling), top speed, or just want something different, I see no need for dual BL motors. Sure, they can work, but not the best bang for the buck IMO. Besides, for every component you add to the setup increases the chances for failure. There is no right or wrong answer really, it's up to the person and their wallet.

It's not new and different. It's been done and done. It's less efficient than one good motor, and much more risk to fry a good ESC.

A pair of outrunners on an emaxx? What kv and gearing? You will have to run high kv motors and lowlowlow gearing if you are using the tranny.
