I have a t4.2 coming I'm trying to decide what castle system I want to order...
I have the castle SCT 3800kv system in my sc10.. the trucks a beast.. I am thinking that could be overkill for a stadium truck.. From reading the sv3 sidewinder is still a 4 pole system..but I never ran one.I know it will be fast but..what about tourqe? Does the sidewinder sv3 have enuff punch/tourqe to grab wheelies on command and pop over jumps with a flick of the throttle.. Or should I just get anther castle SCT system and tone it down with gearing and EPA.
Still thinking out loud.. But anyone familiar with the castle sidewinder sv3 4600kv system please chime in.

Edit
Just watched some videos of the sidewinder sv3 4600kv system seems to have plenty of power..

You'll have no power issues in that light stadium truck...I ran the same setup in multiple stadium trucks...

Thanks probably going to grab that system... the SCT version I believe is a bit heavier and alot more tourquer.

I've got the castle sct sv3 3800 kv in my Ecx Amp mt.. technically labeled a monster truck but it's so lowered aND wide it's basically a stadium truck.. retarted amounts of tourque.. wheelies all day long.. even after gearing up a decent amount and losening my slipper as much as I dare it still wheelies... not the 4600 I know.. but it's close..

Sounds good I will be ordering a system soon.just waiting for the Rc piggy bank to fill a bit.. Or just do a 2 pay with towerhobbies..damm you Rc why are you so addictive

When you get it re-post your thoughts... I was looking at the 4600.. not sure why I went with the 3800.. probly had the same worries about tourque and such..no regrets though the 3800 is overpowered if anything.. but I like to wonder what if lol

I will be running the standard castle sv3 sidewinder not the SCT version.. But I will still get back with results..

I'm digging the castle stuff at the moment . I almost ordered the new Novak hammer system but there going out of business so I'm not sure how the warranty would work.

Update system kicks all kinds of ass.plenty of speed amd torque.
Super glad i didn.t go with the sct system.definatly would have been to much

Finally solderd on my first deans connector successfully. .I give all the credit to finally buying a proper soldering station

Yes im about 6 years into this and the bug don.t stop bitting.. im use to running 2pole sensored systems..but my local track closed down..and the 4 pole systems are alot more fun for just screwing around with.. and the soldering has been a long time pain in the neck.finally got a proper station and alot of practice..made it worth it.. no more running down to the lhs and paying someone solder my stuff

It.a all good...I think this is the forum for me ... great place to get advice and give advice.. offroad electric seems a bit intense at times. . I don.t keep up with the current and the 'best'and never raced.. always went to track on practice days.so I will sport my Spiderman jammas proudly
