    If you do this I'll get what I have together and just send it. no cost.
    (just kidding, I'm sure you mean the build in general)

    Just be like, fine I cant have, I'm going out with my friends to some undisclosed location, instead of building model boats.

      he (well both parents really) wont let me because i ordered the 14XL and the supervee BL system not too long ago, and by b-day is coming up soon...its not just you...anything (even the villain hull northernboater offered me) he wont let me buy...

      i dont feel right accepting things for free....especially after getting all that free stuff from pirnaha2 and diegoboy....ill pay for the outdrives and shipping if you want me to...

        nope, cant charge you, I'm kinda a pain, I really dont care about 5 or ten bucks for shipping. The parts, I'd be just glad someone was using, I wont use them, I dont think anything should go to waste, I'm a bit of a pack rat and to be able to legitimately get rid of something is great. Really no sweat. I'll get stuff together to see what I have.
        edited, I dont want to kill people, just a typo.

            I have a nemesis 8L never been used, never even had connectors soldered to the wires, if you want it. I think that would be cool running twin brushless motors on that villian hull!

              well...first i have to get the hull and outdrives from NB and quicksilver....yeah, ive always wanted to see a villain run on twin brushless motors...after seeing it on one (lou's fast rc) it should go alot faster w/ two.....

              whats the amp draw of an 8L and 9L feigao?

                dont know but if you plan to use the traxxas gear box it wouldnt be as high as direct drive. but it also depend how you prop it.

                  no gearbox...just direct drive...i know i wont be able to prop it up as much, but im guessing ill atleast be in the 40+mm range...considering it will only turn 22,000 rpms....

                    Yeah I'd do direct drive as well, You should just cut out the inner hull, like I did and set up some stringers.

                    btw, I gonna go through my stuff tonite and see what I have.

                          lol, well you do need that hull though. That is a great $25 for a complete hull. At my "LHS" theyre $100.

                          Anyways, if it happens, I luckily have both complete drives, well minus the steering arms(no big deal), some washers and a broken prop. You wouldnt be using the plastic props anyway. I've got one drive shaft, but you should use flex cables anyways and I wouldnt bother sending you u-joints since the stock ones are horrible. So here's what I have
