Mamba Max & 1512 motor?

[nastety92]

I recently purchased a CRT.5 and a 1512 1800kv motor. Would it be ok if I ran the 1512 off of a older Mamba Max and either 2s or 3s power?

The Mamba Max I have does not work and I was thinking of sending it in for repair instead of buying another ESC.

Thanks for the help,
Nick
