Default RE: weird mill setup

There would have to be an input shaft at the back of the first 2 motors to accomodate the crankshaft from the next. There is probably no gears between engines- just a direct link from crankshaft to crankshaft. It would take a LOT of work to get that right, and I would wager that one doesn't work too well (unless there are some PRO machinists behind the wheel).

I think the dual motor output to single spur trans input is more practical (or as practical as a multi engine setup can get).

I wasn't showboating, the first time I read it I thought he was asking how to do a multi-engine setup. I was simply showing what I thought was a different way. Yes it was in RC car action mag and RC car monster truck mag.

sorry scientist i might not hav explained the question properly.
and by the way bulletproof i didnt mean any offence to scientist and i hope he knows that, i think he does.
however i do take offence at you calling me a ''hater''.
i think you should enjoy your experiance in these forums before judging people in them.
as ive said to u many times before, scientist thats a mad truck i like it.

anyway no hard feelings anyone. see ya in another thread
