Hydraulic power was the only way I could think of to use one engine with
two drives in an in-line thrust design. Some of these motors are very
lightweight (IMO) and,as you said, are not the $150.00 cast-iron jobs from
Graingers. These are $2300.00 each. They're piston motors. They ( Eaton )
carry several that are rated from 2000 RPM, up to 3600 RPM... several models
to choose from. And, they have a ton of torque! :

If one gears a clock motor low enuff...
it is said that one could pull the earth off axis.
Hardly a desireable speed for a prop.

There is no free lunch where torque is concerned.
Best be careful what is implied to the uninformed.
