Traxxas Titan

[Doby]

12/10 looks very promising
at least that's when it's hitting the warehouses.
rest of the parts are hitting 1/15 so don't break anything
motor, speedo and graphic hull are way over priced for what they are.
white hull is cheep, 92% of the price is the graphics. although if you look at traxxas's parts pdf they are doing a *Lifetime Replacement* on the hull.
they added a temp sensor to the motor not sure where it's going. traxxas power module pdf
the receiver is also a new part, they're also expecting us to oil the driveshaft I thought grease was preferred

Plase provide the prices that are "way over priced for what they are"

On the PDF you attached, the things you mention are all listed as "call".....with no price given, unless I'm missing something

Retail is never pretty, nor what the hobby goes by

TRA3381 540XL Velineon Brushless Motor: Spartan $200.00
TRA3385 VXL 6s Marine Waterproof Brushless ESC:Spartan $275.00
TRA5714 Hull, Red Graphics: Spartan $180.00
TRA5715 Hatch, Red Graphics: Spartan $28.00
TRA5711 Hull, White No Graphics : Spartan $15.00
TRA5712 Hatch, White No Graphics: Spartan $20.00

Graphic hulls will definitely end up over $80, not sure why white is so cheep, may be priced wrong.
motor is pricey for a re-anodized Feigao
TRA5747 Flex Shaft Oil (20cc): Spartan
why oil

shoulda called the boat unicorn

wow this boat is a failure in the fe dept. in my eyes it is an overpriced plastic boat...what happens when it flips or dives when a 13yr old tosses 6s in it and squeezes that trigger lmao.kiss that 600 bux including lipos goodbye.and I am sure they will be handing out free hulls to those who break them...... shipping is killer on big pckgs. goooood luck.I would rather buy a delta force or knock off and pay someone to build it if I couldnt...which I can lol build it that is...traxxas=marketing target audiences and that they do well!

Oil is also a good method for lubrication. Nitro guys have been using oilers for a long time.

I have oilers on some of my boats...they work well.

And again people are making statements on something they have never seen or driven...this boat might be the best thing since sliced bread...then again it might be the worst thing to happen to FE.......

Wait and see the final product, then call it what it is....

Agreed! Lets wait for it to come out so we can bash it with confidence.

I just noticed. 28 pages about a boat that no one owns yet. The Traxxas name is a very powerful thing.
