I have a Revell VIIC Subdriver and just installed 2 brand new 280 motors supplied by David. I wired my motors in parallel to have them counter rotate but one turns fast and the other turns slow or it doesnt turn at all. If I go full throttle and pinch the shaft of the one thats turning the other one turns but they do not turn the same rpm together. I tried another set of motors with the same thing happening. What am I overlooking?

Check your wiring -- sounds like a series connected pair of motors.

Huh! You're awake early! Make yourself useful and get up outa that chair and send my damned Foxtrot Sub-drivers today!
LOOK FOLKS! He's ACTUALLY FINISHED THEM! That's the three FOXTROT Subdrivers (the shorter ones). It's nothing short of a miracle! Oh! Lordie, Lordie! I can't believe the nightmare is OVER!!!!
Oh! - but wait, UPS is involved still! I don't have them in my hands yet! Something is bound to go wrong! I can feel it in my water!
