Default help on setting up multipull engines?

im just starting into the world of multi engine aircraft and i was wondering how i would set up the electronics for an electric dual engine rc plane? For example do i plug them into 2 different channels and mix them or do i manual put the wires together then plug it in to one channel?
thank you for your help

Default RE: help on setting up multipull engines?

You can do either. It's generally easier to set up the engines if you use two channels and a mix. But you still have to set the linkages up carefully. Some radios like the JR 9303 have twin engine support built in, with dual thottle curves.

You can also use something like the the twinsynch, it works quite well.

There are a bunch of threads on here with more details, try doing a search or just skim through the last few pages of topics for headings that look like twin engine setup. It really pays to read the older threads
