Can i use a transistor its self to make a speed controler or do I need more components.?

Question

If any one can tell, show and/or refer me to a place on how to make a speed controler, that would be very helpful. It is for a project of mine to put a biger motor on a stock rc and power it with 12v insted of the normal 6v.

Answer 1

It takes more than a transistor.

by rc do you mean Remote Control? then you need a RC controller for the speed control, and a lot of parts to take the signal from the RC servo and convert it to a voltage to drive a power transistor that is between the 12 volt battery and the motor.
