That is the same as coast mode on the speed controllers. Try shorting the alligator clips together (not connected to the battery, of course) when you want it to hold position. That will be the same as break mode on the speed controllers, and should hold more of a load. As a side note, it might be worth it to alligator clip a fuse into the middle if your circuit in case something goes wrong.
