how to connect a motor to a reciever?

Legolessed

im working on a project where im using a gilder an a brushed motor or two to try and make it fly forever. i was wondering if it would be possible to connect my motor to my hobbyking t4a via the included reciever. I was also wondering how i would pwoer the reciever. I have both 3s and 1s batteries but idk how it would work. Do i connect the wires on the motor directly onto the reciever. i know the motor will only have 1 speed after doing this if its possible but im fine with that. im also needing to power 1 servo off of the reciever.

you need to used a brushed ESC since the receiver outputs ppm

I have a couple of brushed quads. Is it possible to use that somehow? Would I extend the wire and put the motors on the wings? Could I just use the quad controller and be able to use differential thrust to power the whole thing?

Whoa that is a lot of requests! Most likely you wont be able to use the controller from the pre-built quads since most of them are built specificall for quads. If you really want to, you could probably reverse engineer the schematics and re-flash the micro (assuming they even use micros). Otherwise I would just stick to a small receiver, a 1s lipo and 2 brushed ESC, let your TX handle the differential in software.

ok. but technically couldnt a just put the quad motors w=connected to the quad board and control it using differential thrust on the right stick? sorry for so many questions
