Hi,
You can still make a "component" to do this. I would recommend
extending the Sprite / MovieClip class as your custom component.
Add a variable called speed and add an "Enter Frame" handler to your
code, then in there, work out your next position based on the speed.
It would be a nice way of getting to grips with extending classes
and using event listeners too..

In AS2, I would have made a component with a parameter for speed. I'm
just not sure how to do that in AS3, so I was guessing with a timer, I
could add and event listerner to dispatch an event to the target, but I
guess not. Thanks!

Why use a timer?
It is not necessary to do it on exact time because you use a random.
So in this case Event.ENTER_FRAME would do the trick for you.
