Venom Creeper Rock Crawler

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

"first off, it contains plastic.......Threaded body shocks" lmao

[LJNERF]

is it water proof out of the box?

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

why do they always say check back soon for this video in action, its been like a year and still no video! WTF?!

[nascar99999999]

Do you need to buy a battery and a control and esc?

[mudder300]

@nascar99999999 you have to buy all the electronics. thats why they are so cheap from the store.

[tottos90]

would it be good in a little bit of mud

[DriftingIsMyHobby]

i had bought the red 1 and loved it so much i got the green 1 2 had a couple of problems out of both but still the best crawler ive seen in action out of the losi and the axial stuff 2.2 scale that is

[trx250vrsltz250]

are they any problems with the transmission dose it have a slipper clucth and is it easy to strip the gears?

[bnhobbs]

just ordered mine from rpp for $104 can't wait

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

why are they soo cheap?!?!? i seen one site that sells them for 110$!

[Duckyistrippin]

@xXShadowRejectsXx because they are a kit, not rtr. you still need the servo, esc, motor and tx. which are all crap in a rtr anyways.

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

yea but the axial ax10 is twice this price and its not rtr! lol

[Clayton6699]

it is it just needs battery pack

[Duckyistrippin]

yes. this is true. but this is a venom. i have NEVER seen anything of any quality from venom. not to say axial is great...but there are differences in grades. not all plastic is created equal, nor is all aluminum. Venom can sell things cheaply, because typically they build them cheaply. Thats all im sayin :) But ive never run this kit, and i was happy with XTM which is another budget brand....so i say try it, and if you dont like it. give it to me.

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

@Duckyistrippin sweet~!

[mambabear]

@Duckyistrippin srry for late comment but i do own this crawler and i agree there plastic isnt as good but then again the whole truck is made out of so many diffrent plastics realy some parts need aluminium and some dont its a god truck for the price... 1 thing is that the parts support around me is weak but thats fine since im not to hard on my truck so it shouldnt break

[07crawler1]

its cause it has no motor no radio or anything like that

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

@07crawler1 yea but the AX10 is the same and its 215$

[07crawler1]

it also has more plastic

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

hmm maybe lmfao

[drewsypoosy]

you can buy the dig kit for it

[grug440]

It would be better off with rear dig than unlocking diffs.theres no elec. or transmitter thats why there cheap.

[420witchdoctor]

I'd say "byebye" to those plastic shocks as soon as I got it.

[MIRCWOOD]

I`m getting one.Can you only lock/unlock the front diff from the transmitter? And can you change the rear axle with another front axle with steering servo?Either way I`m gonna get one

[ferrarix20]

is it rtr becuase i saw u had eletornics but the the vemon website it didnt have any soim just wondring

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

woah! this is so cheap!!!! i shouldve got one!!!

[kirby45]

they have themm on rpp hobby for 125 on sale thayl go fast

[CRAZYTHUMPSTARS]

im guessing there not cheap?

[DARKSCOPE001]

quite contrary. they are only 150 us dollars. they are basicly a competition crawler from the box and its a really good deal. check it out. all the major hobby shops have them. tower and stormer. total steal. im debating between this and the new slash 4x4

[staticxmako]

@DARKSCOPE001 HAHHA SAME DEBATE HERE hahahha

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

WOW this is nice!! love the color and shocks and the metal, on RC4wd i think it was 500-600$ tho :(

[punknerd97]

when i saw his face i thought

omg its billy mayes

haha he has a beard like him hahahaha

[VVTAT00]

he would be yelling lol

[punknerd97]

oh ya lol... and he forgot to yell

"HI BILLY MAYES HERE FOR OXY CLEAN"

[crazylemon101]

Ur forgetting something he isnt yelling

[punknerd97]

ya but looks have nothing to do with sound

[14copper14]

What all does the venom need when i go to buy one? servos? motor? esc?

[snobmxman101]

what kind of motor does it have??

(couse you said you can mount a lipo battery and it would have to be a brushless motor)

[carnut421]

not true at all...... lipos can power brushed motors

[snobmxman101]

oh i just thought that brushed motoers wern't good enogh quality tho but thanks

[carnut421]

yeah no prob man.... youre welcome

always glad to help :D

[xXShadowRejectsXx]

@carnut421 yea it can... your right. u run my losi mrc brushed with a lipo :D

[dectrone]

@carnut421 i have one on my brushed crawler.. same with every one of my buddies crawler

[cycle2deth]

you can use any lipo (although i dont reccomend over 11.1V) on a brushed motor. It wont be as efficent, fast, or powerful as a brushless motor, but will give longer run times and more wheel speed. Im running a Novak rooster ESC with a novak 55T motor on a 7.2V Nimh. check out my vid of my creeper.

[baloftw]

Uh, how about you show that fancy remote dif lock in action? I guess no one really wants to see that, right? I mean it's only the best feature of the truck and all...

[jayhawk184]

what the benifit of not locking the dif dont you want them locked all the time?

[ShastyMcNastey]

I think its for a situation if say one wheel is on ice and the other on tarmac, the wheel on the ice would just spin until you lock the diff. If they're always locked, the wheels would all spin at the same speed and affect the turning. I do not know this for sure, thats just my understanding of it!

[rcmadness13]

it is because when trying to go threw a gate, if you find your going to turn too wide, unlock your diffs and you can turn sharper.

Its all to turn sharper, But i just welded my creepers spider gears up.

[gomerpow]

didnt see the control work the sevreo it wasnt even on
