    Got put on the back burner, just haven't had time to complete it yet. It is still ongoing though.

      Yes I would be interested,the plastic hulls are too flimsy other than that a great running boat right out of the box.

          IMO; As long as there are differences you should not have a problem. I would change the hull design a little just to make sure. I would say "similar to spartan" and not attempt to mass market it. Don

            Hey penn me in for one.
            I spoke to the traxxas design team before the spartan was produced about utilizing FG as an alternative to the cheap ABS plastic but I was told that they were not interested, I raised my concern because I had 2 villains burnt on the inside hull from from the battery cables. I then posted the replies on the traxxas forum and it just disappeared. I have always loved the hull shape but not the material so I will be one looking forward to getting one in FG.

              Any news on this?? I assume not. Also there was someone here who produced some custome cut plexi rails that would accept the spartan radio tray, which is awesome. Anyone know who that was?
