I'm writing this assuming you are wanting to just bash around rather than race competitively.
Sidewinder and 4600kv motor is rather good in smaller vehicles. I've played with a HPI Cup racer running the SideW/4600KV combo and it was a rocket on 3S Lipo.
Also used them in crawlers and SC trucks and they were quite respectable although not spectacular.
In saying all that: The Mamba Max Pro is a lot more ESC for not much more money - unless space is an issue as the SW ESC is smaller.
cheers.

Sorry to bust in this but i just ordered the 4600 combo sidewinder for my rustler xl-5. I figured this would be good for bashing. I'll eventually upgrade to lipo. Any good recomendations for lipo batteries
