Minimono As A Retrieval Boat??
I have a Traxxas Spartan and have been looking for another boat to use as a retrieval boat when my Spartan dies on the lake. Those of you that have one of the minimonos, do you think it would work pulling in a Spartan? Would be putting a small foam float with something to hook the rear of the spartan and drag it back in. Just wondering if the minimono will have enough power to do so. I like it cause it's small and won't take up a lot of real estate in my car along with the spartan.Tags: None -
I have a mm. I would think that you would either stress out the esc and burn it up or stress out the drive shaft from the ever-so sensitive coupler. Maybe drag out a foam and line from shore, hook the rear, then reel back both boats. Something I've thought about but have not tried yet. -

Played with it a little today, put my Spartan in the pool and sent the tug to push it back. It worked well. 2 things, the tug could use some weight in the hull to balance a little better but still worked, and just need to make something to give a little more surface space to push the boat back. I was surprised how well it worked still.Comment
