| If your current esc is brushed only which I am assuming it is, then it wont work for brushless.

Yea it wont run brushless motors. The good news is that brushed motors are perfectly capable of running in water. Now all your other electronics will need to be waterproofed or they wont last long. |

He's correct. Brushed motors are better in water and mud than brushless (there are no "sealed" brushless motors).
