Controlling Vex 393s

Does anyone know how the vex 393s can be powered/controlled without the vex-made speed controller? Or if even poossible, whether they can be directly powered with the signal and ground of a 5v GPIO?

We want to use them as servo substitutes for a newbie project but we're a little tight on money.

Thanks!
