the novak motor is sensored and will not work w the sidewinder... get a 55t-65t brushed motor instead. |

A sensorless controller can run both sensored and sensorless motors. A sensored controller can only run sensored motors. and yes sensorless controllers will drive sensored motors so yes you can use novak brushless with the mm but why id just get the goat system |

Sensorless works great at higher motor rpm but not so good at the low end. Just thought I'd add that into the mix.
