Default brushed and brushless motors

is it possible to connect a brushless and a brushed motor to the same lipo battery.i have a 850 kv outrunner brushless motor with a 30 amp esc and brushed motor with a no load current draw of 1amp and stall current draw of 10amps.i'ii be using the brushed motor with a 6" propeller and the brushless with a 10" prop.,the lipo is 2700mah 25c 11.1v.
the current draw for brushed motor with the prop is around 6amps.

The two different types of motor don't care where they get electrons from... and the battery doesn't care where its electrons go...... the 850Kv brushless motor should be fine with a 10" prop on 3s.....in the case of the brushed motor, though, it might be designed for only 2s voltage....make sure that it can cope with 3s voltage.... and if you use a prop that size (6"), on 3s the amp draw might be too much for it.

Are you using two different ESC's? A brushed for the brushed motor and a brushless for the brushless motor. It might not work if you connect the brushed motor to a brushless ESC. Just asking.
