Hey all,
Rediscovered my Super Hornet from 20-odd years ago and would like to resurrect it for the small humans to play with.
Opened it up and found that the only thing missing was the speed controller. My thinking is that a budget ESC would out-live the kid's interest in the RC car.
Looking at the specs of the Super Hornet on the Tamiya website, the car has a 27 turn 540 brushed motor, running on a 7.2v NiCD battery.
1) Would an OCDAY Brushed 60A ESC be suitable for my application?
2) Are the brushed ESCs able to be reprogrammed with the brushless programming cards. The abilioty to lower the power specs would make overall control for the kids more enjoyable at first.
3) If the original NiCD battery no longer holds a charge, will a NiMH 7-pack battery be suitable with this ESC?
Cheers,
