NICE... I like it, now I gotta ANOTHER boat on the wish list... im going to need a second job soon

[Diegoboy]

sweet looking boat. I hope traxxas makes a hydro.

[Brushless55]

Tell me about it, I just went back to work last month after 4 1/2 months off and now I want to build a 40" mono, and 36" twin cat, and now this boat shows up

that would be cool!
I'm thinking this mono may have Castle motor and esc?

[dana]

damn, and you know its built to take serious abuse....its a traxxas!

Maybe we now know the reason Joe Ford has been stealth
Talking to Traxxas about a big brushless boat!! Looks pretty GOOOOOD. 50+ mph out of the box on 6s - WOW.

[Efis]

Is it 36"?

I just cant destroy my slash, the darn thing keeps running...lol

thats what the vid said.

I hear that!
I have a 6XL Brushless Revo and it flippin rips!
I want to do a twin brushless 36" cat build and a 40" mono, but now this thing looks cool, so I don't know what to do?
I don't have the cash for all three...

[Brushless55]

and $400 sounds like a good price..

[speedsport]

That thing rocks. I want one.

[Jeepers]

thats actually a really neat looking boat wow! it took them long enough.

[FighterCat57]

Nice. An RTR that will be. If they stay with Castle ESC/Motors like in their 1/8th trucks, that'll be really cool.

it will porobably not be a mamba monster because they said its water proof, mambas arent water proof unless traxxas is now sealing them?

[HYDROJERRY]

Dont no but man it looks SWEET, Oyeah i want one and heard on the other forum not many like the logos all over but i think it makes it look mean....

I'm thinking they'll work with Castle to design one just for this (and potentially any other) boat they are building. I don't know anything though, I'm just an observer.

I do know a guy at Traxxas, so will see if he's got anything to say that's not already common information.

Check the AQ forum on this site, there is a thread about it.

I am impressed with the look of the hull! It did look like the stinger wasn't adjustable but that can always be changed.

[Hydromaniac]

Very cool lookin hull To bad Traxxas failed to look at the guys who Race or the rules allowances, Its to big in a p set up and will get ate alive in The S-T classes, it is running 50MPH on 6S and the current 4s boats are faster. Still cool looking.

I bet Castle has come up with something special for them on this boat

[Rumdog]

Traxxas isn't really into racing in any aspect of their model. Except maybe the salsh .Yhey offer excellent, tough and fast rtrs. This boat looks awesome, and def. oveer 50mph at the end of the vid. Most guys buying rtrs are sport boaters anyhow. I'd look for this to be THE best RTR on the market.

[Rumdog]

It may have the Castle/Neu motor with a hydra.

[Raydee]

With Traxxas having their own brushless systems I doubt that they would have Castle making a system for them but who knows.

They did for the Revo and Emaxx..
but it could be some new VXL setup because its only $400 for this rtr

This is very true..

Wouldn't think the Traxxas system would be capable of getting this boat 50+. Like Brushless said Traxxas has the Castle 1515 and Mamba Monster in the E Revo and E Maxx. My guess would be a new Ice or maybe the Hydra if it is coming out in June..

[Brushless55]

either way, it will be interesting to see just what they use that can take 6s, rtr, for under $400
