Sidewinder SC

One thing leaves me puzzled regarding the Sidewinder SC combo.

The motor is more complex than the cm36 motors.
The controller handles more power than the regular Sidewinder.
It comes with a Blower.
And yet it retails for less money the regular Sidwinder combo.

It just sounds too good to be true.
What gives?

Avner.

BTW - this puzzelments didn't prevent me from pre-ordering one for myself and another two fror friends.

Yes, isn't that amazing.

Maybe Patrick just wants to take over the entire market for ROAR mod motors and is willing to go with a lower margin to pump up the volume.

Similar thing with MMP vs MM - a more capable ESC that cost less to manufacture so the saving was passed on to the consumer.

It will be really interesting to see the prices of the standalone motors (1406 as well as the 1410).
