If I understnd your question correctly, Yup; as it's basically two 120A esc's siamesed you could configure the motor wires to rotate each motor in either direction. As it has reverse, might make a nice rescue boat esc or a dual brushless Villian :wink:

LOL.........one motor is plenty for a Villain but thats pretty cool that it runs two motors opposite directions with one RX lead. Would be great for a twin Mystic/Motley etc......................

Actually my original plan was for a twin motor Mean Machine but I have other plans for the MM and I need to raise $$ for my single-motor Cheetah now on the bench

Hi Tony, I may be interested in the esc, looked at these when FC sold them, not sure if they still do, most of there esc's went away after the switch over, most 120 amp esc's, such as turnigy or sea king, tend not to like 6s so much, but are really dependable on 5s,or atleast thats what I thought, I could be wrong, do you have any feed back from any one thats run this on 6s, do they hold up pretty well? It is a rated 6s, but just thought I would ask, thanks.

I have to be honest and say that I haven't run any of the FCR esc's at 6S. I do know that in general most of the FC speedies are for HV applications and have been specifically designed as such. I just put a call in to a teammate who runs dual motor boats and lives in the HV realm and expect a call back soon.
