Castle Creations are thrilled to add a performance upgrade solution to the ever-growing micro-scale phenomenon in R/C. The SIDEWINDER NANO PnP may be small in stature, but it's colossal in power and includes their proprietary CRYO-DRIVE Technology resulting in improved thermal performance during partial throttle operation where the majority of driving occurs. The Sidewinder Nano is ready-to-run out of the box but can also be "tuned" for the drivers' preferences using a Windows based PC and a Castle Link USB adapter (sold separately) , or with a mobile device using Castle B-Link Bluetooth Adapter (sold separately).
The PnP version comes with an XT30 battery connectors and JST plug pre-installed on the battery and motor wires. The JST plug is commonly found on most aftermarket outrunner style motors for 1/24th scale.
