SW4 12.6V 2A BEC Waterproof Sensorless ESC with 1406-6900KV Motor (CSE010016403)

The SW4 12.6V 2A BEC Waterproof Sensorless ESC with 1406-6900KV Motor is a high-performance combo that is designed for serious hobbyists looking to enhance their driving experience. This product includes the Sidewinder 4 waterproof sensorless electronic speed control (ESC) paired with a powerful 1406-6900KV motor.

This versatile ESC supports 2s to 3s LiPo and 6 to 8 cell NiMH batteries, making it compatible with vehicles weighing up to 6.5 pounds, ready to run right out of the box. It operates with both sensorless brushless and brushed motors, ensuring flexibility for different setups. The waterproof design of the ESC and the splash-resistant 30MM fan enhance durability and performance in various conditions.

Featuring a 5.0 volts fixed, 2 amps peak BEC, this ESC provides reliable power supply for your components. Users will appreciate the audible alerts that inform them of potential error conditions, along with enhanced drag brake functionality for better control during descents. The Sidewinder 4 offers smoother sensorless startups and convenient transmitter programming for six adjustable settings, allowing for easy customization based on personal preference.

Additional settings and software updates can be accessed via the Castle Link software and USB adapter, available for separate purchase. It is also compatible with Telemetry Link for Futaba S.BUS2, allowing for advanced data monitoring. The CRYO-DRIVE technology integrated into the Sidewinder 4 significantly improves thermal performance, resulting in cooler temperatures, longer run times, and more power.

Ideal for a variety of applications, this combo excels whether tackling dirt, navigating corners, or dominating trails. The 1406-6900KV motor serves as an excellent upgrade for 1/10th scale on-road cars using 2s batteries. While it can fit some lighter off-road 1/10th stadium trucks and buggies with conservative gearing, it is not suitable for 2WD or 4WD short course trucks. Please consult the Gearing Chart for recommended configurations for popular vehicles.

Note that the sensored capabilities of the motor cannot be utilized with the Sidewinder 4 ESC. For those requiring sensored operation, a compatible sensored ESC like the Mamba X is recommended. This product is not intended for operation while submerged in water; however, if used in wet conditions, rinsing with fresh water to remove dirt or corrosives followed by thorough drying is advised.
