Depending on your radio, either look for a FXR or a Castle Mamba Max.....if you have a 3 channel radio you need a servo dig or a mixer like the WantAmix, a 4 channel radio can usually mix 2 seperate ESC's and allows better control.

u mean mamba max can handle two brushed motors ?i thought it was a brushless esc and my raadio is a 2 channel radio

A 2 channel is not really good for a MOA. A 3 channel minimum.....and yes, the Mambe Max can run 2 motors. That was my set-up (single Mamba Max & a servo dig) until I went dual ESC's & a Wantamix on my 3 channel Futaba 3PM-x.

Are most of us running Dual ESC's?

Not entirely true. The Futaba 3PK can mix dual esc's (ie: two FXR's) no problemo, and it does it in the exact same way the 4PK does, you just don't end up with a spare open channel. The 3PK is the best 3ch radio on the market. It's one SICK radio!

Most people don't know the 3PK/S can do dual ESCs. These radios are great with a Spektrum module or FASST.

Thanks for the info. The 3PK doesn't come up much & I run a 3PM-x which needs the WantAmix or similar to run dual ESC's.
