I left out things like that and the control electronics for brevity, I was more referring to any obvious reasons that my scheme wouldn't work that I overlooked.

I think in this scheme, the sychronous behaviour of the Jaguar is not a problem. I also suspect some inductive and capacitive components on each ESC might be wise to smooth out the output so the load is more stable, especially given the (wildly) different switching frequencies involved.

EDIT: I'm just curious, could you describe what you thought I meant?
