Can you run a single motor ESC with dual motors for a clod. If so, does anyone know what ESC would be best that has forward and reverse.
Thanks.

yes i belive you can, alot use the tekin rebel 2, because it can handle the servos and the motor amperage

A great affordable ESC that can handle duel lathe motors and duel servo's is the MOPED VR16.

Look for it on e-bay, $35.00 shipped!

It says its for 10-36 turn motors... i have a 65. will it screw it up?

dezfan

Nope, it will run it!

Rc EnthuSiasTs

why do they have 35t motor limit. Is it because the motors draw too little of a current?

dezfan

Nit sure, but I have used it w/ two 65t lathes and two high torque servos w/o issue!

osofast33

ok.... thanks . That will prolly be the one i get. One more thing, do i have to run the caps and diodes it comes with, or will it be alright without it?

dezfan

I haven't used them in the past, the lathe motors don't seem to be as glitchy as other motors. probably due to their low RPMs.
