New Sidewinder and LiPo questions

[BL_RV0]

So, I went to the LHS yesterday and picked up a Sidewinder 5700 combo and a Impulse 2s 3200 20c LiPo. (Bought both of those because they were on sale ) So, I got the stuff all soldered up, installed, and programmed. And I am wondering how i program the Sidewinder via a Castle Link because i cannot seem to find the USB port on the ESC. Where is it? Is there something I am missing here? BTW, the new combo is running in my Rustler that used to be brushed. (Now I have 2 BL Rustlers ) Ok, so my LiPo question is that when I charged it on my Hyperion EOS1210i I set the settings to 2s LiPo, 3200mAh, 3.2A charge rate, and the pack only took in something like 1200mAh. Is this because the pack was already semi-charged or are my settings wrong? Thanks for your help in advance. The only setting I need changed is the cutoff voltage on the ESC because I'm using a LiPo, (obviously.)

The sidewinder uses the castle link that all of the other cc escs save the mm uses. It is alitle device that plugs into the signal lead that plugs into the receiver. And then you plug a usb cable into it. The battery most likely had some charge in it already.

Great. How where would I obtain this little adapter thing?

Nevermind, just saw it comes with the Castle Link.
