Sidewinder 4 Waterproof Sensorless ESC with 1410-3800KV Motor (5mm Shaft) (CSE010016406)
Sidewinder 4 Waterproof Sensorless ESC with 1410-3800KV Motor (5mm Shaft) (CSE010016406)
The Sidewinder 4 Waterproof Sensorless ESC with 1410-3800KV Motor is an exceptional combination that enhances your vehicle's performance and durability. Building on Castle’s most popular platform, the Sidewinder 4 features advanced CRYO-DRIVE technology, which leverages cutting-edge hardware and software to achieve improved thermal performance. This means cooler temperatures translate to longer run times and increased power, making it suitable for various applications whether tackling dirt, navigating corners, or conquering trails.
This combo includes the robust Castle Sidewinder 4 Brushless ESC paired with a Castle 1410-3800Kv motor that features a 5mm shaft. The motor is specially designed for short course trucks using 2s LiPo batteries, accommodating vehicles weighing up to 6.5 lbs, and can also function with a 3s LiPo under conservative gearing. It is particularly effective for lighter 1/10th scale 2WD stadium trucks and buggies running on 2s or 3s LiPo configurations.
The Sidewinder 4 ESC supports both sensorless brushless and brushed motor operation and is engineered with a waterproof design, complemented by a splash-resistant fan for reliable performance in various conditions. Key features also include a fixed 5.0 volts BEC with a peak of 2 amps, a series of adjustable settings accessible through convenient transmitter programming, and audible alerts that indicate error conditions. It also facilitates smoother sensorless startups and comes prepared for telemetry linking, ensuring a comprehensive experience for users.
Please note that while the motor has sensored capabilities, these cannot be utilized with the Sidewinder 4 ESC. For those requiring sensored operation, a dedicated brushless sensored ESC would be necessary.
