Get Crawling Fast and Easy!
HPI makes getting right into crawling
simple and fun with the excellent Crawler King ready to run truck
kit! With its tall Rock Grabber tyres, heavy beadlock wheels,
super-narrow chassis, front-mounted battery and motor, full-time
4WD and locked gearboxes, you will be be king of the mountain!
Crawling allows you to attempt the impossibble by attacking
near-vertical cliffs, slick rock faces and piles of mountain
rubble! Although in competitions the truck owners compete against
each other, the magic appeal of rock crawling is that each driver
competes against their own abilities, trusting in the strength of
their equipment and the machine that is bringing them up the
hill.
The Perfect
All-Around RC Truck!
The Crawler King is a fantastic RTR rock
crawler, but it can do so much more! When you drive the Crawler
King, you can go anywhere - mud, sand, tarmac, rock, gravel and
much more - and be sure of coming back again! The drivetrain is
rock-solid, the parts are durable to come back from falls and
tumbles, it performs like a champ and is strong enough to get over
just about anything you can get to! It also looks great with the
chrome wheels, off-road tyres and painted and detailed bodyshell!
The Crawler King makes an ideal first-time RC
vehicle! When you're ready to hit the rocks, the Crawler
King gets you started crawling with ease - with the ultra-flexible
Wheely King 4x4 chassis as a starting point, we've added the
excellent #87633 Rock Crawler
Conversion for the best weight distribution, extra articulation and
tuning, plus #4896 Rock Grabber tyres
for extreme grip and finally #3213 Rock
8 beadlock 2.2 inch wheels in chrome for great style and extra
weight down low, right where you need it! To provide precise
control for the Crawler King, we've added the excellent HPI TF-1
radio set with SF-1 servo and the torquey Crawler 55T motor
provides the power, while our own EN-1 reversible speed controller
handles the power.
The Crawler King is ready for competition
in the 2.2 crawler class, with over 15cm (6 inches) of suspension
travel and wheelbase that extends to the maximum legal length! You
can easily tune the shock positions and lower link positions,
giving you plenty of options to get your crawling rig to the top of
the pile!
Long
Wheelbase
For extreme stability when crawling up steep inclines, the Crawler
King uses long links that extend the wheelbase significantly over
the nomal Wheely King. Cool anodized aluminium links with pivot
balls control the suspension linkage, giving you loads of
articulation for extreme angles!Front-Mounted
Battery
The chassis of the Crawler King features a front-mounted battery
compartment to optimize weight distribution over the front wheels.
This is the ideal place to put the weight of the single heaviest
component in the truck, giving you supreme climbing power as you
tackle those tough inclines!Amazing Rock
Grabber Crawling Tyres
HPI Racing Rock Grabber Tires are high grip tires designed for
rocky terrain. These rock crawling tires are moulded with sticky S
compound rubber for excellent grip on all kinds of rocks. The
blocky tread pattern wraps around the sidewall of the tire for
extra grip in challenging conditions. These are true bead lock
tires, made to fit HPI rock crawling wheels using 6-hole bead lock
rings to keep the tyre securely mounted on the wheel without the
need for messy super glue.Crawler 55T
Motor
The new 550-size Crawler 55-turn motor gives you the ideal amount
of torque and RPM to get over tough, steep boulders! This all-new
motor is perfectly suited for the Crawler King and new crawling
afficionados, and features a closed-endbell brushed design which is
nearly maintenance-free!Cool Custom
Beadlock Wheels
HPI Rock 8 no-glue beadlock wheels will be included to give the
Crawler King a sweet custom look and allow you to change wheel
weights, foams and tyres whenever you need to. With beadlock wheels
there's no glueing, and no mess! There's nothing like the look and
style of real beadlocking wheels, and these new 'mag' style wheels
look amazing and perfect for the ultimate scale crawler look!Slider
Driveshafts
Getting the power from the transmission to the axles are a pair of
tough, sliding driveshafts. When combined with the diff lockers
inside the axles, these are the best way to transfer power in a
vehicle with so much articulation - the distance between the axles
and transmission vary as the truck goes over obstacles, so sliding
joints and locked diffs are the ideal way to get the power to the
ground.Multiple Lower
Shock and Link Mounts
To give you the best tuning options and increase the amount of
ground clearance, HPI designers have included a new lower shock and
link mount with several extra mounting locations. This gives you a
multitude of options for tackling the toughest climbs, inclines and
rock piles.
Monster Truck Body
Mounts
For getting a cool custom style, you can't beat the option of
attaching different bodies on your crawler. We've included a full
set of Savage-size body mounts for fitting dozens of different
monster truck bodies! Simply use your Savage or other monster truck
body right on, quick and easy, for a quick style change!Fantastic Scale
Looks
We haven't forgotten about great looks, either: topped with either
a Land Rover Defender 90 or Jeep Wrangler bodyshell and featuring
bright chrome beadlock wheels, the Crawler King is ready for scale
concours honours! You can easily fit other Savage-size bodyshells
on the Crawler King, because it includes handy adjustable body
mounts that allow any HPI monster truck bodyshell to fit precisely
on the chassis!Optional Super-Low
Gearing
If you're ready to compete, it's a simple matter to add the
#87634 Reduction Gear Box Set, that
makes the gear ratio an astounding 174 to 1, for the most amount of
torque for climbing the steepest inclines! The stock Crawler King
and Wheely King gear ratio is 23 to 1, so you will instantly see
the impressive hill-climbing torque that the Reduction Gear Box Set
will give you! The Reduction Gear Box Set will make the Wheely King
much slower on level ground, but you will get the full effect of
the engine as you encounter steep approach angles and slippery,
sandy rocks!
The Crawler King can fit a massive variety
of Savage, Wheely King and E-Savage bodyshells, plus any of the
huge variety of 2.2 inch beadlock and 1/10th truck wheels and
tyres! You can change the look of the Crawler King as often as you
like, it just takes a minute!
