No. Generally sensored speedies will only run sensored motors although the new Tekin may be the exception to this. You can sort of simulate a sensorless motor by disconnecting the sensor cable - you'll probably find it won't work as the speedy needs the siganl from the Hall sensors so it knows where the rotor is at any given point in time. I know my LRP doesn't work without the sensor cable when hooked up to a brushless motor.
