I see it now, I thought you were referring to lathe/axiom motors, where there are 4 holes on each motor, and you wanted to mount it with two holes right next to each other.

You wire in parrallell for a lot of reasons. One being that in series you have half the wheel speed and 55t's are borderline at best IMO. Also like previously stated the clod stall will be so bad that your truck will be practicaly usseless. The only time series is practical is if both motors are mechanicaly conected to the same spur gear so they are forced to use equal amperage and speed. Also it can make 2 27 turns act like a 55 turn speed wise.

if your going to go ahead and do it that way, i would suggest using a piece of plexyglass so that you can see the gear mesh. with a solid alluminum piece, you would not be able to make sure the mesh is right, you need something see-through.

as for the wiring i just followed the instructions that came with my novak super duty xr.i never used any of the crap that came with my super clod buster ,spent almost as much on the speed control as i did on the clod to drive it once and realize how incapable it was ,seems kind of funny to me now

So, back to wiring. I have my ESC lead wires and wires for the rear motor soldered together on one side of the front motor, then the wires run back to the rear motor. Is this series or parallel? Now my head hurts!! |

If you ran one wire from ESC to fr motor, one from there to rr motor, then back to the ESC, that would be series... If the positive and negative wires go from the ESC to both motors, even going from ESC, to motor, to motor, that's parallel... As long as 2 wires come from one of the motors.. Parallel... If one wire goes to one motor then back from the other... Series... |
