Overview
Boost the performance of your HPI Venture 18 with the Power Hobby Brass 7mm Hex Hub Weight Set. Crafted from precision-machined brass, these hub weights lower your crawler's center of gravity, improving traction, stability, and climbing ability on even the toughest trails.
Adding mass at the wheels — the lowest possible point on the chassis — is one of the most effective ways to improve crawler performance. Combined with the Venture 18's already-low chassis design, the result is dramatically better stability on off-camber sections and steep climbs.
Key Features
- Precision-machined brass construction adds valuable weight at the wheels
- Lowers center of gravity for enhanced crawling performance
- Improves tire grip on rocks, dirt, and uneven terrain
- Designed specifically for the HPI Venture 18 with 7mm hex
- Bolt-on upgrade — no modifications needed
Performance Benefits
Wheel weights improve climbing ability, side-hill stability, and overall traction by maximizing rotational mass right where it counts. Drivers will notice a more planted feel through technical sections and increased confidence on steep ascents.
Usage Notes
Best for HPI Venture 18 owners running 7mm hex wheels (the standard Venture 18 hex size). Added wheel weight is excellent for crawling but slightly reduces top speed and runtime, which is a common and welcome trade-off on a crawler.
