[Coach Doug]

The team is trying to determine how to wire our 8 motors with only using 3 controllers. We have a 4 motor tank drive set up so we are considering wiring up one side of 2 motors as motor 1 and the other bank of 2 motors as motor 2 on the controller.

Question: By wiring it this way - will each motor on a given side be provided the optimum power or did it get cut in half?
2nd question: Should we double the wires up to each pos/neg post on the controller or run the positive to the first motor, hook that motor negative to the positive of the 2nd motor, then 2nd motor neg to neg side of controller?

Appreciate some input please.
