The ESC is the first of its kind to run Castle’s CRYO-DRIVE technology that combines technology from cutting-edge hardware and software advancements to increase thermal performance. Cooler temps mean longer runs and more power! The SIDEWINDER 4 is a versatile ESC and is a great choice for short course and monster truck applications, as well as rock crawlers when used in brushed mode.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 16px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(34, 34, 34);\"\u003eThe 1406-5700kv motor is a great motor for 2WD short course trucks on 2s LiPo and geared conservatively. It makes a great combo for 1\/10th 2WD Stadium trucks and buggies on 2s for general bashing and limited runs on 3s; temperatures will climb quickly on 3s. It makes a great upgrade for 1\/10th scale on-road cars for 2s and 3s use. NOT recommended for use in 4WD short course trucks. Please refer to the Gearing Chart in the resources tab for recommended motor, battery and gearing for some of the more popular vehicles on the market.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin: 5px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(34, 34, 34);\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003e2s - 3s LiPo; 6 - 8 cell NiMH use in vehicles up 6.5lbs with battery, ready-to-run\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eSensorless brushless and\/or brushed motor operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eWaterproof design ESC and splash resistant 30mm fan*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003e5.0 volts fixed, 2 amps Peak BEC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eAudible alerts for error conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eEnhanced drag brake functionality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eSmoother sensorless startups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eConvenient transmitter programming for six common adjustable settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eAdditional settings and software updates available via Windows®-based Castle Link software and USB adapter (sold separately) or via Field Link Card (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eTelemetry Link  compatible for Futaba® S.BUS2 (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 8px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(34, 34, 34);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003cbr\u003eInput Voltage Range: \u003c\/strong\u003e2s - 3s LiPo; 6 - 8 cell NiMH\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBEC Specifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.0 volts fixed, 2 amps.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Environment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Waterproof* design allows for use in nearly any environment\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrake:\u003c\/strong\u003e Proportional\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReversible:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, but may be disabled for racing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn\/Off Switch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCooling Fan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30mm fan included\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eESC Size: \u003c\/strong\u003e2.08x1.50x1.28\" (52.92x38.05x32.56mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eESC Weight (w\/wires): \u003c\/strong\u003e2.26 oz.

They can corrode when exposed to corrosive materials, such as salt water. Always rinse the ESC with clean water after exposure to corrosives or dirt. While the controller may be waterproof, Castle recommends users confirm that the rest of their vehicle, including the batteries, servos, radio and chassis are also waterproof before exposing them to liquids of any kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 16px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(34, 34, 34);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin: 5px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(34, 34, 34);\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003eNot all LiPos are created equal, and surge ratings should never be used to determine a pack’s suitability for a brushless application. Use the CONTINUOUS C rating only. Brushless setups frequently hit 100+ amps in peaks. Castle strongly suggests using 5,000mAh or larger LiPo cells with a discharge rating of at least 30C (or high quality 25C batteries). Castle suggests using only mild gear ratios with NiMH cells. Do not attempt to use NiMH cells in extreme setups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; padding: 0px 0px 2px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003ePlease refer to the Castle Gearing Chart for recommended motor, battery and gearing for some of the more popular vehicles on the market.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Castle Creations","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43270360891480,"sku":"010-0164-02","price":134.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/7433\/1480\/files\/cse010-0164-02.jpg?v=1765819471","url":"https:\/\/www.aueracehobbies.com\/products\/castle-creations-sidewinder-sw4-waterproof-1-10-esc-motor-combo-w-1406-5700kv-1","provider":"Auer Ace Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
