Default Source for small speed control ?

I asked about this in the "Speed - Electric" forum but it was suggested I also ask here -

I have a model Tug running a 2.4 amp 6 volt Pitman motor. Power is via an 8.4 volt NiCd. I was going to use an old Hitec SP-5/10A ESC I have but it seems to have passed away so I'm looking for a substitute. Most of the speed controllers I've looked at are rated for upwards of 40 amps, a bit big for the application. Does anyone know of a reversing speed controller more appropriately sized for this motor ?
