It will work
 I was running a Sidewinder with 4s and CCBEC on a Novak 17.5 (~2200 kv). There was quite a bit of cogging at startup due to the gearing but once rolling it was pretty smooth. Now running a MM Pro though.

The official answer is no.
The Sidewinder was not designed for running above 3S. Some percentage of Sidewinders will NOT work at all on 4S. The BEC has a maximum voltage of 16.0V, 4S is maximum around 16.8V. Some percentage of the BEC chips detect an "overvoltage" condition, and shut the BEC output off. President, Principle Engineer Castle Creations |
