Maybe, prolly... Cheapest, easiest way to go bout it.. get a Lipo alarm.. like 6$... You can get them for up to 6s an with a voltage display on them..

Yep, that will work for a Lipo alarm.. for a dollar or two more, you could get one that also has a led read out of ur voltage as well.. if you wanted.. I have alarms an a Lipo voltage checker. Cost twice as much as buying one that does both.. just a thought..
Yes, that battery will work. Suggestion.... Get 2x 1000-1300mah(turnigy Nano-tech is what I run) it saves on high up weight an lowers ur cog, an can be used if you ever go with a axle mounted battery setup.. cough cough, Rmdw btl kit.. lol.. it kills two birds with one stone.. ota steering, no more hanging up on the tie rod out front an cheaper upgrade.. saves ur servo from abuse an gets the battery on the axle..

scoggdog13, you wanna go fast like a wraith but still wanna crawl, heres what i am runnin in my creeper, for 12 bucs get a hpi firebolt 15turn brushed motor,a 19 tooth pinion, a single outcry esc from 4wdrc you can run both 2 cell an 3cell lipos,i run both from a 800 to a 1600 get close to 30 minutes of run time depends on your trigger finger,i all so put a proline tuber cage on mine with roof rack give it a scale rock buggy look, on 3 cell 1600 it will smoke a stock wraith in a flat drag easily, just my 2 cents. caution!! faster means broken parts also.lol.

Woe...... Crawler "nut" is right! lol.... That's got to be the fastest creeper I can ever remember hearing bout!
Sounds like a rally rock racer, not a crawler.. team drivers are running a 55t with a 19t pinion.. I can only imagine a 15t... Video?

Are you just using it for a alarm? I have one that's a voltage checker with numbers, I like, an just a alarm.. since I have seen them combined into one.. nice numeric read out for testing batteries voltage an alarm when there low.. for 6$-7$...
Other then that, either will work.. if ur never goin to use a 4s battery, the top choice is good..

I have a few updates havent posted in a while so bought this off of a member here on rccrawler.com on the for sale section. Had to do a few modifications to it but not much and still need nuts for the rear shocks because it is Christmas and the hardware store wasnt open today so here is the thing I have purchased











I am using all the stock venom parts
venom trans
venom links and shocks, tires and wheels
just different chassis which is a scx10 chassis will tubing on it.
Also just ordered a axial 27t motor so should be here this week or next.
Well thanks for looking and hope you like it.

Well went out and drove the truck today and I noticed I didnt have any rear wheel drive so I checked it out and one of the drive pins came out and was stuck to the motor so i went inside and thought i fixed it and I put the pin through the big circle hole instead of the one it is suppose to go in well it locked up so i gave it some throttle and boom there went the drive shaft and i really dont have the funds for a new one at this moment

That sucks! I knew the feeling once.... That's all it took to go a diff direction for a drive shaft. I went Traxxas shafts an metal yokea first.. then I realized I could get mip drive shafts for around 30$ used actually got em for 22$ or something.. someone sold ygm on ebay under junfac shafts.. lucky! Then got a set on the for sale section for 25$.. worth every penny of retail! 60$... Last a life time! Haven had one single issue since.. good thing too, cause I got no funds to replace either..
