Dec 1, 2021 at 11:34 comment added Robotics Lover I have a follow up questions. I am now looking to purchase DC 12V 83.3A 1000W Power Supply and will use 4 brushless motors A2212 1400KV Brushless Motor. I have check the Motors and they require 11.1 V and Load Current: 19.0A Power:210W. From my understanding the power supply I am looking to purchase would meet the requirements to run the motors at full torque. Am I correct is the power supply adequate or am I missing something?

Dec 1, 2021 at 7:30 comment added Robotics Lover Thanks you for the answer everything makes so much sense I did know about Parallel and Series but I was for some reason thinking that because the ESC is in between the motor and PSU and because all positives and negatives would be connected would make it a series! that's where my confusion was. I am now thinking to buy 2212 10T 1400KV Brushless Motor + 30A - bi directional Brushless ESC * 4 and the power supply would be : DC 12V 60A Universal Regulated Switching Power Supply 720W. I want to buy a good power supply so in the future if I change out motors or esc's I have a good power source.
