I bought the motor used from MDcrawler72 (which gave me a good deal and shipped very fast) and all 3 wires are black but labeled A, B and C.

As you know the Sidewinder has red, black and white wires. Can anyone tell me which wires go together? I tried to search, but didn't find anything to help me out.

Thanks in advance if you can help.

Doesn't matter. Hook them up in any order. THen, if the motor spins the wrong way, you can set reverse via castle link, OR youcan just switch ANY two wires, and leave the third alone.

EASY

It is the same as the castle one so i would use the same wiring as thier 5700 motor. Heres a link from the traxxas site with a pick of one.
