    I dont take pre-orders. Reason being its not possible to gauge how many we will really get in our hands. If i take 10 pre-orders and only 5 come in. Thats 5 pissed off customers.

    I am already thinking a pretty little green 2200 would fit in there quite nicely.

    Did you notice that they say "No Tape Required". Should be interesting to see how that works.

    That's a lot of kv for a 36 mono.

    What's interesting is how the electronics tray is removable. The stuffing tube and everything comes out. I wonder what seals it? She does look great on the water too.

    The Stock BL motor is 1600KV, I bet the Castle 1518 1800kv would be a excellent and welcomed addition ?

    I would assume that Aeromarine did not have the copyright to the Titan name for a boat hull....

    I'd go with the 1520. Bigger props, and 6s still.

    The boat is also a big bastard. It's 36" remember. The 1717 would actually be good for a mono this size. It looks pretty dang good stock though!

    I have a 1717 in a Losi XXL Monster truck running on 6s, The truck is roughly 16+lbs and that motor yanks it around like it's a matchbox car.

    I bet it would be a great motor for it, tons of torque !

    Even though it may be lighter than a glass 36". It's still have the wetted area of a 36" boat.

    Yes it does look good, and let's face it... If u upgrade the motor much a bigger esc will be in order which kind of ruins the clean looks ofthe well thought out electronics tray.... I'm gonna keep mine stock for awhile.... I still remember the first time I whipped out my erevo at a house party on 6s!! Everyone was impressed to say the least.... Traxxas knows how to create attention, and this doesn't look like it's going to dissapoint! :)

    I understand where you guys are coming from but wouldn't the 1518 be much more efficent even tho it's a slightly higher KV than the TRX motor ?
    TRX doesn't make junk but the Castle Motors have to be built with higher tolerences and be more efficent than them ? They are a Steve NEU design after all.

    Yeah, It's a great motor, BUT it isnt a 6s motor. 5s may on that 1518. I had one, it's a great motor. Reguardlees of weight, once it has 6s in it, and being that it IS a big boat, it's still a lot to push. Notice only a 42 mm prop comes on the boat. Any bigger and the esc goes poof and the motor overheats.
