Default Heat sink broke off of stock ESC. Can I use a Mamba Max?

I was waterproofing my stock esc on my wraith yesterday and I accidentally pulled my heat sink off of the esc board. I have a spare mamba max esc that I can install. Will this work ok with my stock motor? I hooked it up yesterday and the steering worked fine, but I have the wrong bullet connectors on motor to hook it up. Will the mamba work with my stock motor? Just asking, before I go and buy bullets and solder them after work today. Thanks!

Yes it will work, just make sure you set it up for brushed operation on the computer

A lot of people have the misconception that the ESC pushes power to the motor. It is in fact that the motor pulls power from the esc. Any esc capable of brushed opperation and has the current rating for the motor used will work. Some just work better than others.

What's the current rating on the stock motor and esc?
