It will depend if the radio can mix two ESCs. The Futaba 3PK series can and Harley has a video on how to do it in the Axial XR10 section.

If your radio can then you use channel 1 for steering and channels two and three for the ESCs.

Another approach is to buy the cheap Flysky GTB3 from Losikid on this forum which will mix the two ESCs. For a pricier option you can get the Futaba 4PL which has the dual ESC mix mode built in.

thank you arecee..when you run the esc's on seperate channels can you control both motors at the same time..im not looking to run dig at the moment.

That's why the tx needs mixing abilities. When it does both escs can be ran independently (fr/rr dig), same speed, or any speed in-between (proportional dig). If you have no intentions of using dig or no mixing ability you either need only 1 esc that can handle both motors or a y-harness to connect both rx wires together.
