What made you decide to use a Sidewinder in a 12th scale with a brushed motor? Why not use something more common for that application?
When you say common, Do you mean something that works?
It sounded like a good product from visiting the website (kinda like those infomercials on tv and I guess I was wrong). The way that it is advertised it sounds like it can be used for any application ex. (brushed, brushless, lipo, nimh).
