Hello to all members,this is my first posting and as I,m new to boat building I would like some advice as how to wire a twin motor twin Esc setup which allows me to steer the boat with the motors and the rudder.I,ve been trying for a couple of days and just cannot seem to get it right any info would be much appreciated ???

Welcome to the forum firstly,

secondly how many channels are you using???
your going to need a channel for each ESC and another 1 or 2 for the servo for steering.

Have a read in the motors section at the bottom of the main mayhem page full of info on wireing the set-up you require.
If your able to post a pic maybe we could tell you where your going wrong in the mean time were all here to help.
