Overview
This combo includes a Castle Sidewinder 4 Brushless ESC and a Castle 1410-3800Kv 5mm Brushless Sensored* motor. The 1410-3800kv 5mm is ideal for short course trucks running on 2s LiPo and weighing up to 6.5 lbs; it can be run on a 3s LiPo with very conservative gearing. It is a cooling running torque animal for lighter 1/10th scale 2WD stadium trucks and buggies running up to a 3s LiPo.
* Sensored capabilities of the motor cannot be utilized with the Sidewinder 4 Brushless ESC. If you require sensored operation you will need a Brushless Sensored ESC.
