It says it can have brakes and reverse, and its only $24, so If it sucks I won't loose much money.

Let us know how it works.

BTW: Did you read the "important note"?

Important Note: this ESC is Opto, without BEC supplying power to your Receiver, you need extra power source for your receiver. You can use a UBEC, a voltage regulator, or extra batteries as the power source for your receiver. If you hear the music tone repeat again and again for more than 3 times, you may need to check your power source to the receiver.

So, you will need a seperate BEC, and do not remove the red wire in the throttle cable.
