Hello, I am looking for an ESC for my smoke pump motor. Its a brushed (ol school) motor.

I need an ESC that does NOT have a BEC as it will interfear with my already powered RX system.

Any links you have would be a big help.

you can use an old analog servo circuit board. Take say a futaba s3003 servo that has a broken case or stripped gears tear it apart and then wire your power wire from the smoke pump motor to the power dist. joints on the circuit board. this should give you enough power to run the smoke pump along with remote switching, on/off. These circuit boards will certainly withstand 3 amps and you could probably get more. I can't see you needing any more power than that on a brushed motor for a pump.

Cool. I discovered that the hobby king ESC only likes 1024 resolution.

any brushed esc will do it just disconnect the red wire from the servo lead on the esc
