dual esc/motor setup

[mrsnuggles]

as i have been frying one mmm after another i was wondering if i could install dual setup in my truck?

i have no problem fitting all the stuff but i was wondering if it could be simple as using y connector from the esc's to the rx or would i need to run the rx from external battery?

by going dual setup i will need to run twice the battery so both setups wont be starved or overload the battery when braking.

as going dual setup the twin would be sharing the load wich fried my older single setup. im guessing that the load would be about 30-45% less on each esc instead of 100% on the single setup.

also im wondering witch lipos are the best. not best for the price!! but the best quality. orion.smc? other??

my truck weights 13 pounds with no wheels and each wheel weights a pound so its 17 pounds in total. i mostly run hillclimbs and it will be geared for about 30-40mph top speed.
