Introduction and twin motor thoughts....

Evening all,

I have just stumbled across this site whilst searching for information on Brushless Truggy conversions, and I have to say it is a mine of information! I've got loads of past threads to catch up on, but I thought I would just ask about an idea I had at work today.

I have been toying with the idea of a Truggy conversion for a while now, and one of my thoughts was the possibility of using twin motors on a chassis, replacing the centre diff assembly (and possibly driveshafts too). I don't know if it has been done before, but has anyone ever seen a conversion that has a single motor powering the fron diff/axle and a single motor powering the rear diff/axle? The motors would be driven by two dedicated ESC's.

I was thinking that it might allow for some interesting tricks with the power split (and braking split) being easy to play around with. I'm not sure of any problems that may occur with this sort of set up, but has anyone ever seen this done, or perhaps has any thoughts on it at all?

Any input would be appreciated cheers!

Andy
