I would install it as setup A.
Setup A has a more equal balance of power going to the drive/prop. Whenever you have a multi-motor, single drive configuration, IMO the best thing you can do is rule out variables and try to keep things as balanced as possible. |
You say you have the original Casale 1000. How is it set up?
If the v-drive is not 1:1 ratio then you have to go with figure A. 1 LH and 1 RH rotation engine. If it is 1:1 you could go either way however with figure B you could use engines of the same rotation. IMO figure A would be stronger with the 2 engines being splined together turning the shaft through the gear in the same direction. Figure B I would think jerking back and forth on the teeth would result in a broken tooth especially if a engine hic-uped. |

Have the original Casale 1000 (only about 40 made), 1.09 to 1. A B/W Velvet drive, 1 to 1 on each motor.
As I said I don't want to get into all the logistics until I get a consensus on how folks would do it if it was theirs. I will be more then very happy to discuss it all then. I have enjoyed following your project on your web page. :drink: |

Getting ready to put it together but running a theory by everyone to see if my theory is insane or not. |
This will F_ with you all.
