Is there any reason you can't run two motors off one ESC, for instance a 240amp Swordfish pro plus with two 4060 tp 1860kv on 8s this combo will be in a Drag boat. So no long runs just short bursts.

I did it a long time ago with brushed motors ... not sure how it would work on a brushless setup.

I've seen it done on on Youtube with a T180 and a pair of T600 motors if I'm not mistaken. Does work to a degree but, one motor may start before the other and one might turn the opposite way on occasion too.

The esc will get confused with conflicting rotor position reports from two sources.
You are correct, sorry.
It works, a member here tested with up to 4 motors several years back and posted it, vids are on youtube. Amp draw will be your main concern
