Default RE: Running 2 ESCs in parallel running 2 motors

Thanks for the replies,

If I put them in series I'll be back with a low top speed.

The plan was to have a rediculous *spelling* high speed, ok I won't have very much torque, but with ABS tyres it should drift quite well. When I have chance I'l make up the new motor mounts and get some spur gears. Still don't know how Im gonna mount the spur gear to the motor tho. I deally I want a ~55 tooth pinion, but I can't find any pinions that big with the same pitch. I've tried different pitches but can't find any that you can have an equal size spur and pinion. The next problem is I havn't got any way of making an adapter cos I havn't got a lathe.

It may be a while, but if/when I make any progress I update this thread.

regards

Gazza
