Yeah... I'm waiting anxiously too . Hopefully we'll get ours before christmas! At least the USA-guys should... Don't know about shipping stuff overseas in about a week during christmas hassle though ... :-(

@ Tre, thanks, I think your going to like the Creeper, tis very capable out of the box. As for MOA's thats a different animal but you never know, would be cool too!

Overseas shipping will be tough for sure, especially direct from us, very expensive! It can be done though...

After reading the hole thread. I will be picking one of these up. I saw that there was a slot for 4 servos, how long before the front dig comes out.

Venom, maybe this has been answered but I didn't see it.

Do the lockable diffs have servo mounts already or are they bought separately?

Either way are they for micro servos hopefully?

Also are there some better pics of the chassis from the side with the body off? I am doing a little preplanning and would like to see this.

Thanks! Brian

Due date : not fixed yet but we are expecting 7-10 days from now and shipping immediately after, they wont sit for more than 24hrs here.

The Diff Lock Kit comes with a micro servo and the chassis is designed to accept up to 4 micro servos for various functions. No word yet on any Dig Kits but I will keep you guys posted for sure.
You can set up front and rear Diff Lock on 2 channels so you can control them one at a time from a stick radio like a DX6 or 7.

Let me see about another chassis shot of the sides. I think we have posted that already on our site.

Chris

Remote Diff Lock Kit is about $35, comes with servo and cables and mounts. The stock axle has a manual locking slider so both axles are equiped to be lockable stock.

My post goes out to Chris, Man it would be nice if all vendors supported their product in this manner. Every question has been replied to and honesty when it comes to a release date !!!! I know all about press releases and timing. great work Chris and the venom crew for such a great product. Happy Holidays and I will let you know my personal tests of this thing by the new year.

I'm going to torture myself and read all the threads started by the people who get their hands to the kits sooner than me... And there I am, waiting for my kit to arrive in like a week or two plus customs! :( It's going to be a painful experience . . .

Thanks, as a customer I dont like it when you whant to know something about a product and there is literally nothing to go on unless you buy it and try it. I can't give you guys the experience of the Creeper that I have had working on it and so on but if I can answer your questions and paint a pretty clear picture then its no problem and I'm glad to do it.

I'm looking forward to seeing all of you guys go out and run it and mod it, pretty interesting to see from my point of view.

Chris
Happy Holidays

Chris, Any realtime update on the arrival of these? I have called the 800 number but to be honest the people answering your phones are not very helpful or have been told not to say much about when these will be here. One person (jason?) said they would be in this week, now its next week and as of today they are due in next week but you guys wont be shipping until mid january?.... any truth to this?

I am ordering a 7700kv and mamba max just because I want to be the first to see some axles snap.
