Arrow Recommendations on a motor and ESC

So I need a little help!, I am at the tail end of building my crawler, Venom Creeper
I need a good ESC motor combo. This will be used to bum around the house, climb over a rock or two, beat around the yard and wreak havoc on my cats!
I want some torque for playing around but I also want a little (not a lot) speed.
Any recommendations???

BTW I plan on runnning LIPO's
2s or 3s

Go with the FX-R Tekin and 35T - 55T you won't be unhappy with any of those combo's for what you want to do.

I did the traxxus brushless system, motor and ESC and I think it really ahs some power and torque, but cant compare it to others as its all I have. it was not cheap but its all pre wired with perfect length wires and the ESC and motor are water resistant.

I can pull the front tires about a few inches for about 2 ft and it has some decent speed for a crawler.

Novak rooster Crawler ESC 35T motor of your choice (teken is good) I would stay away from 3s LIPO because your going to be breaking stuff left and right with that much power/torque

actually my Novak rooster 2s and Novak Fifty-Five is awesome on 2s Lipo, i don't really see the need for any more torque than that for a begginner-intermediate crawler level usage
