How do wire 2 brushless motors on 1 plane
How do I wire 2 brushless motors on 1 plane, from the motor all the way back to the receiver? Do I have options like 1 ESC or 1 battery? Will I need 2 receivers?

RE: How do wire 2 brushless motors on 1 plane
For brushless motors you will need an ESC for each motor. You can connect both ESC's together using a Y-connector so they both plug into the throttle channel of your receiver - - - or if you have a programmable 7+channel transmitter you can have separable controls for each motor. If you have identical ESCs, you do NOT need to disable the BEC of either of them, as long as the output voltage is within .1Volts.
You can power them both off 1 battery, provided that battery is large enough (amperage and C-rating wise) to supply the needs of the system.
Go to http://www.castlecreations.com/media/castle-scribe.html and read "Issue#3" about multi-brushless systems.
