1:50 Dragline

[Rvjimd]

I am in the middle of a refit/overhaul of the little 1:50 Menck dragline. It was initially setup using micro servos converted to continuous rotation. I was thinking about using micro gear motors and speed controllers but it uses three motors in the house for drag, hoist and swing. There is also a servo in the undercarriage for locomotion.

My question, has anyone used a micro sized motor controller designed for quad copters to control brushed motors?

I'm starting to search for that now, but if someone has already done something along that line it might save me a bit of searching. I would like to use four of the pololu micro gear motors in the house and add boom control.
