Castle has developed new software that minimizes the amount of time the ESC's electrical components spend generating heat by optimally controlling which components are being used while driving the motor. This is happening thousands of times per second, which greatly reduces the rate at which the Sidewinder 4 heats up. Overall, the Sidewinder 4 generates heat much slower than previous versions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis software breakthrough has been coupled with a completely re-designed case. A great deal of time was spent studying fluid dynamics simulations in order to optimize the airflow through the case. Improving the airflow into and out of the case, allows the cooling fan to become more effective. In order to take full advantage of the improved airflow efficiencies, a 44% larger, higher flowrate 30mm fan was selected. The improved case coupled with the 30mm fan significantly increases the Sidewinder 4's ability to remove heat from critical components, such as MOSFETs and capacitors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy reducing the rate at which the Sidewinder 4 heats up and removing heat more efficiently, Cryo-Drive takes thermal performance to a whole new level. The Sidewinder 4 allows users to push beyond the limits of previous generation Sidewinders by handling higher gear ratios in heavier vehicles with longer runs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCastle Link Compatible\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith the optional Castle Link USB Programming Kit you can use your Windows™ PC to easily program your controller.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAdjustable settings include:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrottle curve\u003cbr\u003eBraking curve\u003cbr\u003eDrag brake\u003cbr\u003eAuto LiPo cutoff\u003cbr\u003ePunch Control\u003cbr\u003eReverse Type\u003cbr\u003eMotor Type\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAdditional Castle Link benefits include:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAccess to all firmware updates, including added features sets released from Castle Engineering, at no charge.\u003cbr\u003eIntuitive Demo Mode capability.\u003cbr\u003eAbility to save setup profiles for later use.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003eController Technical Specs:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInput Voltage Range:     2s - 3s LiPo; 6 - 8 cell NiMH\u003cbr\u003eBEC Specifications:     5.0 volts fixed, 2 amps.\u003cbr\u003eOperating Environment:     Waterproof* design allows for use in nearly any environment\u003cbr\u003eBrake:     Proportional\u003cbr\u003eReversible:     Yes, but may be disabled for racing.\u003cbr\u003eOn\/Off Switch:     Yes\u003cbr\u003eCooling Fan:     30mm fan included\u003cbr\u003eESC Size:     L: 2.08\" (52.92mm)\u003cbr\u003eW: 1.50\" (38.05mm)\u003cbr\u003eH: 1.28\" (32.56mm)\u003cbr\u003eESC Weight (w\/wires):     2.26 oz.

They can corrode when exposed to corrosive materials, such as salt water. Always rinse the ESC with clean water after exposure to corrosives or dirt. While the controller may be waterproof, we suggest users confirm that the rest of their vehicle, including the batteries, servos, radio and chassis are also waterproof before exposing them to liquids of any kind.\u003cbr\u003eApplication Guidelines:     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.\u003cbr\u003eIt is a cooling running torque animal for lighter 1\/10th scale 2WD stadium trucks and buggies running up to a 3s LiPo.\u003cbr\u003ePlease refer to our Gearing Chart for recommended motor, battery and gearing for some of the more popular vehicles on the market.\u003cbr\u003eProgrammability:     Fully programmable Castle feature set using Castle Link USB adapter (sold separately) and freely downloadable Castle Link Windows software.\u003cbr\u003eTelemetry Link Capable:     No\u003cbr\u003eTech Notes:     Not all LiPos are created equal, and surge ratings should never be used to determine a pack’s suitability for a brushless application. Use the CONTINUOUS C rating only. Brushless setups frequently hit 100+ amps in peaks. We strongly suggest using 5,000 mAh or larger LiPo cells with a discharge rating of at least 30C (or high quality 25C batteries such as Traxxas® Power Cells®). Our experience suggests using only mild gear ratios with NiMH cells. Do not attempt to use NiMH cells in extreme setups.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMotor Technical Specs:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInput Voltage Range:     2-3S LiPo\u003cbr\u003eKv:     3800\u003cbr\u003eMax.
