Default Beginner ESCquestion

Hi all, this is my first post. I am located in Chicago, Il, USA.

I am working on a small radio controlled vehicle, roughly 4 x 4 inches powered by 4 AA batteries (6VDC). I have some experience with electronics, but am totally out of my comfort zone with regards to RC vehicles.

I will be using 2 Pololu gearboxes such as this one:

I have a Fly Sky 2 channel transmitter, model FS-GT2:

The manual is here:

Page 7 shows how to connectthe receiver to motors. The DC motor is connected using an Electronic Speed Controller. Here is my problem.I don't which ESC is suitable for my project. I found thismodel at Amazon:

HOBBYMATE BLHeli-15A-ESC

Will these work for my project? Suggestions are welcomed!

Thank you for your time and assistance. Saga
