Agreed. If you want a bit more speed but still are crawling I would not go below a 35t unless you are just trailing. Id run the 50t with the 19tooth like Thomas said unless you are trailing which you could run a 27t. Also running a lower turn motor like a 20t and torqueing it to hard to climb rocks can fry brushes and the esc so make sure if you are crawling alot to not run lower then a 35. |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues X2.. I run a 45t with a 15t pinion an can use it as a trail rig.. now that's with 3s.. I run my trail rig(scx-10) with a 35t on a 15t pin as well.. I do lots of crawling with my scale rig setup that way an have yet to have a problem.. I didn't have any problems with my stock 27t out of the axial either but like the extra torque I get now with the 35t.. an that just took 3rd in a mile an half g6( trail run) .. I wasn't at max throttle by any means.. the creeper keeps up with it, just fine! Hope this helps.. |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues On the shocks is it better to have the shock adjustment all the way down or up based on crawling. Right now i have them close to the top and i am not getting enough ground clearance because i keep getting hung up on rocks. |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues screw the adjusters down to raise your truck, this will also make the shock stiffer. |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues will this motor pinion work for the venom creeper Traxxas 2419 Pinion Gear 48P 19T w/Set Screw Steel Stampede Slash Rustelr E-Revo | eBay |

Yes it will work. |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues cool thanks |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues what is the best oil weight to switch to in the creeper, I am still running the stock oil weight which i think is 25wt and my shock shafts are barely out of the shock body? |

Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues Here is my Creeper. I havent done really anything to it at all. It has a: Venom 50t modified fireball motor Axial AE-1 ESC Venom 1825 High torque metal gear servo 7.2V 1200mah battery http://http://i1260.photobucket.com/...3/IMG_0973.jpg http://http://i1260.photobucket.com/...dbutbetter.jpg http://i1260.photobucket.com/albums/...dbutbetter.jpg http://i1260.photobucket.com/albums/...3/IMG_0973.jpg |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues Currently I am having some problems with my axial ae-1 esc and I think it is time to get a new esc and i was looking at this Venom 540 55T Brushed/60A Waterproof ESC Crawler Combo 13022 | eBay I was wondering if this is a good setup for the price or should i get a different esc? |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues Quite a few people have had issues with the venom esc... |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues i think i figured out what my problem is, I think it was the servo cuz the esc connects to the transmitter and the truck goes forward and reverse but the steering wont work so i think it is my steering servo. I am thinking about getting the CKRC Special MG946R, 208oz Torque Metal Gear Servo. |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues Finally got my parts in today and got the creeper fixed also got a 19t motor pinion and it runs so much faster. Anyways, I have a problem with my body clearance from my tires because every time I turn I rub and I was wondering if there is a solution to this like get 1.9tires and wheels or just stick with 2.2. I would like to get mudslingers and I dont know if i should get 1.9s or 2.2s. Here is what my truck looks like and where it rubs when it turns- http://i1260.photobucket.com/albums/...lazerBody2.jpg http://i1260.photobucket.com/albums/...blazerbody.jpg |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues IF you are going to go the scale route then you need to adjust the wheelbase a bit as the tires do not match the wheel wells. It looks like you are off by about an inch or maybe 1 1/4in Divide the difference you are off by half then remove that amount from the front and rear links to get the wheel base right. You will probably have to redrill the holes in the body after the adjustment. You will still probably have to cut the fenders out some. You can also make a scalish frame from 1in C channel steal you can get at the hardware store or use aluminum bar. You will have to make some shock mounts. Doing this greatly reduces the torque twist and the articulation but helps to have a more scale articulation and it shouldnt rub as bad. IF the wheelbase doesnt bother you the only option is to cut the fenders out, or raise the body up by using different shocks or different body mounts of some kind. Raising the body though adds higher COG so it will roll over easier. 1.9 are only a little smaller. most are 4.25-4.75 so only about 1/4-3/4in diff between the 1.9s and stock. If I remember correctly the stock creeper wheels are only 5in tall. |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues Before I would change link geometry or link length I would get some 1.9 wheels and tires...swap them in and then look at the set up again...I would then center the rear wheels cut outs over the rear axle and adjust the link length in the front. |

Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues your wheelbase is too long now... |
Re: Just got a Venom Creeper (my first rc) and have a little bit of issues Well the easiest way to shorten the wheelbase is to cut the links a bit on each end or front which ever you want, as the wheel base of the creeper is to long the body is to short for the stock creeper wheel base. |
