    The only difference with my dual motor installation is the switch. You show a double pole switch. I use separate switches for each ESC as mine usually come pre-wired with the switch.

    Pat

    We always use two separate speed controllers and wire them up as shown. We have used this approach for over 15 years and have had no issues. Hope it may help

    P96 is a servomorph unit. P94 has 2 x 20 amp escs and the P94 L has 2 x10 amp escs.
    If it don't fit, use a hammer to make it fit....

    I use the Action P94 on my Harbour Tug in the tank steering mode and it works great.

    Hi Pat. I like to use the Action P94 dual escape plus mixer. I have one in my LCM6 and I am just upgrading the power train in HMS Manchester. Manchester is getting a parallel power board, to safely connect two batteries without fear of back charging, two fuse boards and the P94, which is programmable for various combinations of motor/rudder mixing. I can scan the instructions if you want to have a look.
    If it don't fit, use a hammer to make it fit....

    On my current build which has two motors I have 2 x ESC's combined with a W-Tail mixer. The W tail mixer assists with steering as it speeds up one prop when turning and also controls the rudder where as I believe a V-Tail mixer doesn't control the rudder. The MTroniks one that I have will also handle 3 screws if required.
