Connection of two motors to Mtroniks microSwitcher

[Serjio]

Dears,

I'm building small RC submarine model at the moment and there will be two small motors (only 3 volts each) to be used. Recently I bought Mtroniks microSwitcher through Sub-Driver site for this purpose.
The model is wired up via Speed Controller.
I have a question regarding connection that motors to Mtroniks microSwitcher, where shall I put red wires (+ polarity) of the motors to, knowing that black ones going to outputs "a" and "b" of the Mtroniks microSwitcher?


Could you please provide me with electric scheme to connect that two motors correctly.

Thanx in advance for your reply.

Regards,
Serjio.

If by the word 'microSwitcher' you mean ESC. Then this is how you wire the two motors to the ESC:

Black lead from the ESC (marked, 'motor') branches to one motors + lead and the other leg to the other motors - lead. The red lead from the ESC (marked, 'motor') branches out and connects to the motors in a similar fashion. The two motors are wired to the ESC in parallel. The objective is to have the motors turn in opposite directions.

I'm no expert, but I have stayed at the Holiday Inn, and the Hilton. M Troniks has a wiring diagram shows the red and black goes to the battery, thru a fuze, switch, has two small black wires, yellow and blue to the motors pos and negative posts. Yell being positive. There are warnings and variants to wirings on the instructions as to receivers being used, and fail safes. Perhaps one of the electronic wizards will chime in here, It took a couple try's for me the first time to get it right.

By the word "microswitcher" I meant the product I bought through Sub-driver (please see attached). I have ESC in my model and that ESC is connected to the main drive motor. I would like to control two small additional ones using the very Mtroniks microSwitcher.

Oh! I understand. Simply wire the two motor in parallel with the electronic switch output wires -- insure total current draw does not exceed the electronic switches capacity.

Didnt quite understand the question myself. What are the two motors going to turn? Just curious

[Serjio]

Dear M,

would you please darw up a diagramm (just very schematically) for me to understand properly.

Thanx in advance for your support

solonoids would be the reverse polarity(counter rotating motors) if you want the motors turning the same direction wire them in series. Cant really see the small picture of the diagram so I dont know what the model number of the switch, I looked up MTroniks wire diagrams and there are quite a few varients in the immage section, I just picked this one for simplicity.

[Serjio]

I have attached the initial diagram (with the switch I have) and would you please draw the connections just on the image (or somehow).
Thanks

Too small of an immage to see, edit it to full size.
