Castle Creations Sv3 Waterproof 1:10 12V ESC & Sensored Motor for Enthusiasts

The Sidewinder 3 stands out as the ultimate waterproof combo designed for both 1:10 scale off-road and on-road vehicles, capable of running on batteries up to 3S Lip. While it is waterproof, please note that it is not intended for use when fully submerged in liquid. The combo features enhanced circuitry, which significantly improves response times and overall reliability.

At its heart lies an upgraded 4-pole, 12-slot censored motor, known for its exceptional efficiency. It's important to point out that this motor's censored functions cannot be activated when used with the Sidewinder 3; it operates in a sensorless mode. Nevertheless, users will reap the benefits from the rebuildable nature of the censored motor, as replacement parts will soon be available, and the design allows modelers to easily swap out damaged motor wires.

The Sidewinder 3 is designed for immediate use right out of the box and offers programmability through your transmitter. Additionally, many more customizable features can be accessed using a Windows PC with a Castle Link USB adapter (sold separately) or a Field Link card (also sold separately). This capability allows drivers to finely tune their settings, including brake and throttle curves, throttle response, drag brake, and a variety of other parameters. Moreover, users can download firmware updates and feature enhancements as they become available.

Included in this combo is the Sidewinder 3 ESC paired with the 1406-4600Kv censored motor. This motor setup is especially well-suited for 2WD short course trucks running on 2S Lip with a conservative gear ratio, as well as for 1/10th scale 2WD stadium trucks and buggies also on 2S, which are ideal for general bashing. For brief runs on 3S, users should be cautious as temperature levels may rise quickly. Additionally, the motor serves as an excellent upgrade for 1/10th scale on-road cars utilizing both 2S and 3S batteries. However, it is not designed for 4WD short course trucks.

With impressive power packed within the Sidewinder 3 Combo, you can expect remarkable response and performance right from the moment you set it up.

Key specifications include: - Minimum Input Voltage: 2S Lip; Maximum Input Voltage: 3S Lip (equivalent to 6-8 cell NiMH). - ESC Dimensions: Length: 1.93", Width: 1.48", Height: 0.79", Weight: 1.96 oz. - Motor Dimensions: Length: 49.5mm, Diameter: 36mm, with M3 mounting holes spaced at 25mm. - Recommended Vehicle Weight: Up to 5 lbs., including the battery when ready to run.

To ensure smooth operation, you will need 4mm female bullet connectors for motor connections. This robust combo is set to enhance your RC experience whether you are tearing up the track or tackling off-road adventures.
