Noob Question for you tech guys.

You can run 2 bl motors off one bl esc. They have to run the same pinion size on the same spur, so in an emaxx it is doable. You do have to sync them to each other, I am a little fuzzy on the technique. The up shot is that it is simpler and often the same price to run one motor with one esc. A dual motor dual esc setup like the vtwin is an option. Most do not care for it, and a MMM combo with the 2200kv motor is a better choice.

Even if you were to run the motors on a common spur gear, the minute differences in gear mesh, kv values and other minute differences when the esc is switching 2 motors at hundreds of times a second... If you want to run 2 motors, your going to need 2 speed controllers... The Only problem is that you now have 2 systems transforming your battery power to heat (esc and motor), limiting runtime compared to that of a single system.... Best bet is to get a high efficiency motor (neu, CC, Medusa) and be done
