Don’t Be Afraid to Get Wet! Sidewinder 3 with 1406-4600Kv sensored brushless motor is the perfect waterproof combo for 1:10 scale off-road, on-road, and rock crawlers running up to 3S LiPo. It sports updated circuitry for faster response time and improved reliability.
Overview The Sidewinder 3 is the perfect waterproof combo for 1/10 scale off-road and on-road vehicles running up to 3S LiPo. It sports updated circuitry for faster response time and improved reliability. This combo includes a Sidewinder 3 ESC and 1406-4600Kv sensored motor. This Sidewinder 3 Combo packs a lot power and will deliver exceptional response and performance right out of the box!
This combo now comes with the new sensored motor. While the sensored capabilities of the motor cannot be utilized with the Sidewinder 3, users will benefit as the sensored motor is rebuildable and this design even allows modelers to replace damaged motor wires. The Sidewinder 3 Combo will give you exceptional response and performance right of the box!
The 1406-4600kv 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 for use in 4WD short course trucks.
The Sidewinder 3 is ready to run out of the box and is programmable via your transmitter. There are also many more programmable features that may be accessed using your Windows™ PC and a Castle Link USB adapter (sold separately) or a Field Link card (sold separately). Drivers can tune their favorite settings such as brake and throttle curves, throttle response, drag brake and many other parameters as well as download new firmware updates and feature upgrades as they become available.
Sensored capabilities of the motor cannot be utilized with the Sidewinder 3. If you require sensored operation you will need a sensored ESC like the Mamba X.
Not intended for operation while submerged in liquid. If unit is operated in wet conditions, rinse with fresh water to remove dirt or corrosives, then fully dry unit.

Hi guys Would this fit my traxxas rustler ?

What are the connectors on this
Asked by Leyton on 15th August 2017
As I understand Castle don’t put battery connections on any of their ESC units.
4mm gold motor connections pre-installed so can fit to ESC unit.

Would this work well as a motor replacement in my typhon 3s?
Asked by Lannan on 12th December 2020
Yes that would fit in a Typhon - just watch your gearing though as 4600kv is relatively high for a buggy
