Dual motors, different gears?

[Desertprep]

I was just reading that some Tesla's have a motor up front and one in the rear - the one in the rear is set for a lower gear ratio to help for starting up and the one up front has a higher gear ratio to be optimized for cruizing. I pretty frequently see older Subaru wagons and Samari's, Sidekicks, etc for sale. If what I mentioned up front was true, how easy would it be for "mortal man" (i.e. not a billionaire) to set up this system? Would it need 2 controllers or can it be made to run off of one?

Keep in mind, you are talking about electrical circuits. Can you fit 2 of X into a box.

Yes. Next question please.

DO you have to be a billionaire ::looks at his portable power and test station, made out of an old Plano Tackle box::

Nope, do you have an actual question? Or are you recruiting?

When it comes to dealing with a new plan, get the concept software banged out, this is where you will do 90% of your testing. It will be a bick awkward ric that is a pain to move around, but it has all the code in a simple to manage format.

Once you are pas that, it is time to do your first test build.

Do you have any background in non-mobile DC electronics?

So 2 separate motors running at different rpm ?
Simplest solution is to use a separate controller for each motor ( as Tesla do also !)
