Venom RC Creeper ESC for Brushed/Brushless Motors?
I have a Venom RC Creeper, and one of the required parts is the V2 Pro Brushless ESC 120A (VEN-1339), however the description for the ESC says it’s for Brushless motors, and I have a Fireball Crawler Motor 55 Turn Sing (VEN-1336), which is Brushed.
Does this ESC work with Brushed motors?
Is there another ESC I should use?
Or do I even need one if I use a Brushed motor?

Whats wrong with my Venom Fireball modified 17d RC car engine?
I have a fireball modified 17d RC car engine that doesn’t run it did for about 2 weeks then if just quit. At first when transmitter and controller were on it would sort of beep rapidly then it just stopped and on occasion (like if I put it in a weird position) then it would start but when I pulled the trigger on the controller it would immediately stop. please help that engine was brand new
RC Staff Member Answers:
The engine is probably fine, it is most likely the controller that is bad.
Charles asks…
What is the lifetime of an rc battery.?
I had an emaxx and batteries for three years. My batteries take longer to charge, they last a shorter amount of time, and they don’t have as much powers. I wanted to know how long they usually last. I have venom 7.2 volt 3600 mah nihm batteries
RC Staff Member Answers:
These kind of batteries will start to lose their capacity to charge after a year or two; they will still work but the decreasing power output will continue to drop. I would advise getting the same batteries as you currently have, since they have lasted you 3 years.
