Hi there!
What is the best way to wire two esc's on my clod?
I run a 8 cells pack, 6v pack for the receiver and servos, two 55t and a 5955TG at steering...

get a wire splitter. if your ESC can not be programmed to run bacwards thatere is a harness that you can buy that you can make one run backwards and only use one channel one the receiver. i did this with my goats on my g-made spider. and had two stearing servos. only used 2 channels.

Not sure what radio you have, but check this out:

Here's a servo Y harness with reversing, although I'm not sure if this will be best for your application.

How many channels do you have on your radio? it will take at least 4 if you want to run dual esc's

Just wondering why you want to run 2 esc on a 3 channel? It wont to any good imo. To get the use of the second esc you need at least a 4 channel to be able to control the second esc separately......

i don't see why you can't run two esc's off one channel with a splitter as mentioned above.

maybe he doesn't want to. not everyone with a clod wants to build a super. especially since the class is dying.

He can run 2 esc off of a splitter but imo its a waste of money, you wont get the full use of the second esc without the 4th channel, the one esc will work fine on 3 channels or two esc on 3 channels, it just wont give you seperate control of the second esc.

I just need my Clod's TR2 for my WK and have two kind of Mopeds laying around... If it works it's not worth to buy another TR2!!
