Basicly, what is the best way to change a single motored plane into a twin motored plane?
1- what motors to use? Say I have a 2000kv motor running an 8X4 prop. Do I half it all and run 2 x 1000kv motors with 4x4 props? What is the best way to work it out and do I require a similar thrust for each motor or combined thrust?
2- ESC wireup. Can I connect 2 motors to 1 ESC, eg: original motor pulls 20A max, can I use 2 10A motors on a single 20A ESC. or do I need 2 ESC's and how do you connect 2 esc's to the same channel? Can you use a standard splitter with 1 battery and a battery splitter or do i need 2 batteries, 1 for each ESC?
3- Battery choice. would like to use the original battery type, but would i have to up the mha and or discharge rate and or the cells (eg 2s battery to a 3s)
Any help would be appreciated.
