I haven't heard that, but I haven't thermaled either. All I did was use a y-harness and take one of the red wires out of one speed control. maybe that's why the ports are connected on the v-twin Traxxas did.

Yeh apparently in the post that I read one of the controllers had to have the control board disconnected so that one board ran both controllers. There was a lot of discussion about Traxxas comming up with a solution of sorts to remedy the issue. After all they have a prototype that seems to work fine for them, so they must have figured something out. Do you use the fans on the ESC's to keep things cool, or are they running just fine as is?
