I was given a boat that has 2 500 size motors and a dead speed controller (mechanical controller), I'm looking for one to replace it, it has to support 2 batteries and 2 motors.
Let me know if you have one laying around.
Thanks

Sorry, I should have mention I need a cheap esc, due to the fact that the boat itself might worth very little.

I might have an MSC laying around that can handle 2 motors and 2 batts in parallel.

Take a look at ProBoat ESC. I'm running a pair of VSP with 550 motors and it handles them with no problems.
