Oh yeah, and how about a single engine Nitro Villain with 2 counter-rotating props. Bunch of guys have been working on the design in the Villain forum, we think we have it worked out.

What happened to the SRT?

How about a twin engine Nitro V hull with twin jet drives. Comes with Cd Player 6 speaker sound system, power trim from the remote, a built in ski compartment, power beer cooler, and a trailer with hitch to tow it with your TMaxx. http://www.traxxas.com/ubb/biggrin.gif Ooppss! I'm thinking of my dream boat. How about a RTR Sailboat with battery backup motor? I've always kinda liked sailboats. http://www.traxxas.com/ubb/smile.gif

Hey guys, this spring I will be creating the worlds first(as far as I know) Nitro Villain IV. It will have the same features, counter rotating props, and same radio. The difference will be it will have an OS .32 CV-X engine instead of the stingers. I also plan on adding the return to shore system found on the vee. If it works, I think the best of the boating worlds will be tearing up my pond http://www.traxxas.com/ubb/smile.gif http://www.traxxas.com/ubb/smile.gif http://www.traxxas.com/ubb/smile.gif http://www.traxxas.com/ubb/smile.gif http://www.traxxas.com/ubb/smile.gif

O.S. makes a .32sx-mx. not .32cv-x. and someone on the hpi board already stuck 2 .15fe in his villian. and make sure if you put 2 engines in there that you have each one on a seperate channel.

Sailboats do not suck, they are just completely different. I have a sailboat that I thoroughly enjoy, and although sometimes I want to go out into the water and push it (which I do with my Villain, hehehe) they are incredibly fun for just relaxing and tacking around in a bay. Plus, if they could make a powerboat with the efficiency of a sailboat hull, the thing would be ballistic.
And T-Maxx2001, keep me updated on the Nitro Villain!!

Yup exactly I have like been sending emails out the butt, trying to convice them to make a new boat, i mean, the newest boat of theirs is 6 or 7 years old, gees haha, when they have made new cars and trucks in the past year, it just kinda is a shame, and it burns my boat a little more, that they dont pay as goiod of attention to the boats as they do the car industry i hate to say it but traxxas is behind now and days in the rc boat world straight up http://www.traxxas.com/ubb/smile.gif

Traxxas should make a Nitro Outrigger. It could come rtr or like a pro model like the pro 4-tec. For anyone who doesnt know an out rigger is the fastest kind of boat but most unstable. Right now i am making an electric one with plans I orderd that i could make faster then nitro vee. go to www.rcboatmodeler.com (http://www.rcboatmodeler.com) to get a look at some of the other boats on the market.

Nitro all the way

I think a redesigned Deep Vee would be great, 2 or 3 inches shorter than the Nitro Vee, improved cooling, direct drive and seperate rudder. It'll be quicker (cause it's smaller) and be more stable in turns, because of the direct drive.
