I think it cant be done, any one think diffrent?
I hope I am rong and can use just one contyroller, these things are expensive :shock:
 
sometimes works if you're bench testing it, but not on the road. Brushless are dependant on feedback from the hall sensors. and since the wheels aren't always turning the exact same speed at the exact same time, then it will fail. probably with a puff of the expensive smoke the controller is filled with.

It would be like trying to run 2 engines with 1 distributer.
 
what if it doesn't use the signal from the hall sensors? like the pedal first controllers.

Both motors have to be exactly in phase with eachother. You can't guarantee that unless they're mechanically coupled at the output shaft of the motor.
