Default RE: Xtreme Boom Tail Motor on CX2

Thanks for clearing things up.
So If I want it to run off the reciever I need a controller unit of some sort.
I've also been thinking If I wire it up straight to a main motor I should maybe use a resister, so that It doesn't have too much of a power drain. What size resister would I use?

Da Man1, I was thinking about what you said and I don't really think it matters what motor or set of blades I wire it up to. Like what you said "they spin oppisite of each other" so if I run a tail rotor it will always be fighting one direction or the other. Both sets of blades should be close to equal in power, but from what I've read one motor does get more wear then the other, So I do need to figure out which motor has more stress and wire my tail up the the other. Thanks for creating the thought .
