Any thoughts about this combo in the granite 4x4?

I may be getting the sidewinder 4 used for like $35. The guy also has this 3800kv 5 mm shaft. Would the 5 mm shaft be okay for the granite?

Looks good to me. I used a Goolrc brushless setup on my Granite 4x4 and it was badass.

As per Castle:
For short course trucks running on 2s LiPo and weighing up to 6.5 lbs; it can be run on a 3s LiPo with very conservative gearing.
It is a cooling running torque animal for lighter 1/10th scale 2WD stadium trucks and buggies running up to a 3s LiPo.

You will be fine if you run 2s. If you run 3s you will have heat issues.
