Just the weight and balancing issues alone make sense for a single motor setup. Hey we all have our dreams to achieve so you do what you will, but listen to word of reason here. This factor has been discussed several times here in RCM. Good luck with your project.
From what I have gathered I thought multiple motor setups were better suited for torque applications which is what I'm after, not so much as speed. You can only gear down so much. I can't lie the "WOW" factor has a bit of influence in my decision as well.
