A newb motor question.

[dozerboy]

Hello all, sorry if this has been asked before, but here goes.

My son and I took a Axial Dingo and turned it into a 6x6, now we want to add a second motor, we have the mount that holds both motors, they are identical stock Dingo motors with the same gear. My question is, when I hook them up can I hook the positive on one to the esc, then hook the negative on that one to the pos on the second one, and then the neg on the second motor back to the esc, or should I run them both separate to the esc?

Thanks in advance.

We are BRAND NEW to electric RC, most of the rest of our fleet is nitro.

I would wire them up in parallel not in series the way you described.

Thank you for the quick reply. Can I still get away with using the one esc doing it that way?

Thanks again.

Depends on the motor and esc.

If the motors are 35 turns and up then most esc's will deal with it.

27 turn and under motors will more than likely cause an overload to the esc.

Like I said though depends on the esc and motors.

I know NOTHING about these motors, except that they are 27t. S we may run into a heat issue?
