2 scorpion xxls?
why?

[gizmo]

it's 4 wheel drive

[harry hills]

dont they have 25a cont though?
with 45a peak
am i right in thinking one would be enough?

[gizmo]

well then I will have a spare if something happens to the first one

Edit: they only have one input so I would be controling 4 motors with 1 channel

They are definitely not 1 input, first line of the description reads:

The Robot Power Scorpion XXL is a flexible high-performance two-channel motor controller

So you want 2 motors per channel Left in one and Right in the other.

[gizmo]

Thats what I mean only 2 motors per channel

i'm pretty confident it saying youll be able to run 4 drills on an xxl, they have current limits on them i believe so should cut before you damage it

everyone saying I can run 4 motors of 1 scorpion put a tought in my head, could I run 2 motors off an electonize 30a? It would cost less.
