Yes..how?

Maybe I should have been more clear. We are using VEX motors for prototyping MINIbots designs. We will NOT use them in competition we are only testing ideas.

We have tried stripping the wires from the VEX motor (PWM connection) and tried directly connecting them to the battery. BUT the motor does not spin. We have tried ever combination of wire colors possible.
