Venture 18 CC Flux is a compact and powerful off-road vehicle, ready to run straight out of the box! It comes with a brushless setup and a metal gear servo. Here you get a solid, competition-ready crawler with a 2 mm aluminum chassis, V2 oil-filled shocks, a center-servo-operated gearbox with a “half-DIG” function, axle-mounted steering servo, and rock sliders. This allows the crawler to handle tough conditions with precision. The Venture 18 CC Flux includes a 3S 360mAh LiPo battery, USB charger, and only requires 4 AA batteries for the transmitter.
Venture 18 CC Flux Competition Crawler – Gunmetal
The Venture 18 CC has a suspension setup that provides good ground clearance and control in technical terrain. The suspension is based on solutions from larger off-road vehicles, and the placement of the steering servo, gearbox, and electronics is designed to keep the center of gravity low. The result is predictable handling and good mobility over small and uneven obstacles.
