Default twin ducted fan esc setup

I am working on a GWS A-10 with brushless hyperion 5000 KV motors. I am not sure how to connect the two speed controllers (hyperion 20A titan) to make this setup work. I have read some of the other discussions but still dont get it! I have a JR computer radio to work with and was wondering how to get the speed controllers to work either on one 7.4V lipo's or maybe separate batteries for each speed controller. Can somebody explain this please, Thank you

Default RE: twin ducted fan esc setup

It's pretty simple: Just connect all the + wires together, and all the - wires together. Rather than hard-wiring them together, the best way to proceed is to install connectors on each ESC, and the battery, then construct a Y-harness with the corresponding connectors.

For a GWS A-10, you shouldn't need more than one battery pack. It'll need to be big enough to handle both motors at full throttle.
