| 1 ESC, 2 Motors ?
Ok I don't know if I'm entering the wrong topic in the search function. So I have to ask. I would like to run 1 esc and power 2 motors for my CC. How do I wire it up. I am going to get a Novak Mongoose with 2 18.5's to drop in my Cliff Climber. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Pics of the layout will be even better. I need to see to understand.

That will not work. Think you will need 2 ESC if you are running brushless! Brushed motors will work though! |

You can't run 2 brushless motors off of one ESC, you would need 2.

are you planning on running any type of dig unit or do you just want to run the dual motors.

when i ran that set up i ran the esc straight to the rear motor like normal and then ran wires from the other side of the rear motor to the front motor. you would end up having the power go through the rear motor to the front motor and it helps a little with stall.
