Cheapest setup would probably be a 45-55t lathe motor, a Moped V16R esc, and a towerpro mg995 (mixed reviews, most very happy though). You could get all three of those for under $80-100 if you look around. Most of the site vendors have deals on these for fellow RCCrawler members. Good luck, that's what I started out with, cept I wanted a faster motor cause I wasn't building a crawler only...
