    Dual Motors?

    I have two stock AquaCraft Ep-1's. I need a ESC that can be setup to support 2 outboards on a 2 Channel radio. What do you guys have in mind?

    Thanks.

      But the motor on the AquaCraft is a 27 turn. And the EVX 2 Marine has a limit of 19 turns. Will it still work?

        Yes.......the ESC can handle higher turns, not lower.

            One thing........the connectors for the EVX are made for a series connection. You have to mod then or close off one plug circuit and use just one............

              What do you mean? Instead of buying the new TRAXXAS batteries I should just mod the connectors so I can use the regular batteries I have.

                The connectors on the esc run the two batts that you hook up in series...........hook up two 6 cells and it becomes 12 cells etc............. If you want to run 6 cells close off one connector circuit and use one.........or then use a parallel connector to the open one and run twin 6 cells off of it....it works, i've done it.

                  does it matter which lead you close off? or since it is series its all the same - did you try both and find it the same?
