Any idea on when the crawler conversion is coming out? Tower keeps changing their date and HPI hasn't told me anything either.

We have order them but the release date seems to be shifting everytime I inquire about when to expect them ;) I find it a normal thing for HPI so no drama

They are stalling on the release most likely because HPI is going to introduce the WK as a RTR crawler... so I have heard.

Interesting rumour, I can't see how it'd work as RTR crawler though, it's no match for a AX-10 even with the crawler mods on it.

Does that mean they're gonna put some decent wheels and tyres on it because the stock WK ones are pretty poor for crawling. ;)

Default New to WK

Hello,

I am new to the Crawling scene and have a question about reversing the chasis to put the battery up front. Did they just flip the chasis and reverse the connection on the motor? My WK is on the way and I am really excited about converting this thing into a crawler.

Thanks,
