Overview
The Sidewinder 3, is the perfect waterproof (not intended for operation while completely submerged in liquid) 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 now comes with our improved 4-pole, 12-slot sensored motor that boasts exceptional efficiency. While the sensored capabilities of the motor cannot be utilized with the Sidewinder 3 (motor will operate in sensorless mode), users will benefit as the sensored motor is rebuildable (parts available soon), and this design even allows modelers to replace damaged motor wires. 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. This combo includes a Sidewinder 3 ESC and 1406-6900Kv sensored motor. The 1406-6900kv motor is a great upgrade for 1/10th scale on-road cars for 2s use. It can also be used in some lighter off-road 1/10th stadium trucks and buggies with conservative gearing. This combo is not for use in 2WD or 4WD short course trucks. This Sidewinder 3 Combo packs a lot power and will deliver exceptional response and performance right out of the box!

Hi I'm reading the description and it states 'the sensored capabilities of the motor cannot be utilized with the Sidewinder 3'. What exactly does this mean? Does it change from sensord to sensorless but dosnt have a programing feature
Asked by Lewis on 6th July 2022
it means the motor is a sensored motor but the Sidewinder ESC is a sensorless ESC so the motor will work on the ESC as an un sensored motor.
