          Well technically it is my dad's but I am sure it will be mine in the future! It has a strait 8 in it and was just rebuilt. Everything is original except for the paint and if you count the motor.

              How did I miss this?

              I'm glad someone has finally done this. You can also run two of the 4030's on a single big ESC as well. =)

                    Yes I do! I am a co-op student in the AFRL in a power electronics lab. Tested everything with a $15k LeCroy Osilliscope!
                    And not yet, I am working on my gassers tonight.

                      I just ordered a 200amp 16s FC esc! I think it will be pulling double duty with two inline 880kv T600's on 12s in my 47in mono and on 8s in my next build that will be a 1717 powered Daytona.

                        Cool. You'll have to share the shaft transfer process. Think it's just a matter of some clips and set screws, right?

                        Some guys have been doing this with the big turnigy motors for some time. Same with e-bikes... Lehner does the opposite, where two ESC's drive one motor (with 6 leads).

                        Fun stuff for sure!

                          I love the different types of power systems! I am going to make a thread on how to put the two motors to one shaft soon since i have to convert the two 880kvs I have.
                          Hopefully I can run this big guy on 6s soon!

                            Steal my ideas much..
                            I was gonna do that exact setup but with the 6S motors.

                              Haha! This was my original idea with the gear drive in the 47" (with two esc's) but I was afraid of putting two on one shaft.
                              Do it and we will have twins!

                                idea, actually a really good one. I order 4 motors, 4 batts, you order 4 ESC's, then we ship to each other, that would save on cost.
