Hey, small question:

I have Sidewinder esc, what other motors could I run with it than Castle's own?

Would it handle Speed Passion Competition 6.5r V2? I know Castle recommends not to run higher kv's than their 5700kv, but if I would run it on 5 cells NiMH instead of 6 and maybe get a fan?


Specs:
# New motor can design, which enhance faster gear ration setting
# Light weight, imporve balance on 1/12 on road and 1/10 on road racing
# new high torque copper wire design with more botton end, more run time
# 3 optional timing advance positions
# New color Titanium Grey!!

# Recommended Gearing:
# 6 cell 9.2 to 10.0
# Size: 540
# Turn: 6.5R
# Watts: 550
# Kv3 (RPM/volt): 6800
# Shaft Diam (MM): 3.175
# Rotor Performs (ROM/temp): High/High
# Hand Wound: Yes
# Thermal Protection: Yes
