Twin motors wired in parallel draw about the same current as a single motor with half the turns, so if your speed controller can handle half the turns of whatever motors you have fitted, you'll be fine.

So for example, for two 27t motors in parallel you'll need an ESC that can handle down to 13.5 turns. For two 19t motors in parallel you'll need one that can handle down to 9.5 turns, and so forth.
