Mamba Max on 5s

[brijar]

What if I were to use a Mamba Max ESC in my Villain EX in brushed mode? Could I run 5s A123 through two brushed motors? My EVX went south a while ago, and I may need an emergency ESC if I have to race somebody. I have a little 5v 2amp voltage regulator that I custom made from Radio Shack parts, so i can use that for BEC power off of the 2s pack. It only has to power a 2055 steering servo.
I have a little 12v fan for my Mamba ESC, though there is not hardly any airflow under the hatch of a boat. I may just wait to get an EVX-2 when I have a chance, as I also need some waterproofing stuff for the boat as well.
