Default ESC as a Nav Light Switch

I was told that a simple brushed ESC could be used as a switch for operating Nav lights on a plane in place of a pico switch or a mechanical switch. I have purchased a set of these nav lights, and would love your help in figuring out how to wire this up.

I was thinking of a small cheap ESC like this one.

Would this work, or is it more trouble than it is worth.
