Not quite true. The R/C car world has had brushless controllers for years
that also can power brushed motors. It is all in the esc programming plus some
internal changes.

I'm assuming they won't work because a brushless ESC won't work with the
brushed motors you are using in the tanks.

Steve, so I cannot use these ESC as is? Why would “Brushless be bad for our

inquired from the company in Australia. I hope I get the PWM input on these
(the photo did not cover the connectors), because the Talon SRX does not have
the right input for the controller wire, and they have a full page of how to
install the PWM wire… this is crazy that they have another input Loic From:

Subject: [TANKS] Re: Successor of Talon This company is taking Turnigy 85A
brushless controllers and modding them for brushed. It involves reflashing
with new code and removing one of the motor leads.

stock controller from HK:

I'd consider finding the OEM of the product and see if they would produce
brushed versions for you. The code to do so is open source and freely
available. ST

As a vendor of 1/6th scale tanks, I'm now out of my entire inventory of Talon
SR. This ESC was very sturdy and I believe that I had only ONE that failed (out
of 100+)
Now I'm in discussion with "Cross the Road Electronics", and the successor of
the Talon SR is the Talon SRX. I guess it comes with lots more "bells and
whistle", which I don't really care for since the Talon SR was doing a great job
My issue is PRICING: The new Talon SRX is $90. 50% increase cost on the ESC.
Also, the discounts of the electronics world are abysmal.
Do any of you have "other options"? I'm not interested building one. I just
want a product OFF THE SHELF.
I'm in urgent need of good, strong ESC for 24V applications - 100A peak
operation (I have about 15 ESC required for current sales)
Please help me!
NOTE: the Victor is not applicable. It will only take a maximum voltage of 16V.
Since I got the floor, let me show you a pic of a current project: I'm building
an AAV-7 for an engineering firm contracting with the Army. It has a Fiberglass
body, no suspension, but two jet propulsion on the side. I will post a video of
its workings in the water--
