    40 MPH Villain?

    I'm still at it but this hull is getting old at about 14 years of age. Its not quite 40mph but then I did have the 5 ounce Gps in there.

    how much rpm does that motor have? you could use the hacker c50 with 60,000rpm that might go faster. they claim its the most powerful production r/c motor ever.

    Hey Dan man Iv'e never seen the specs on a c50 The 9xl turns 1793rpm per volt. That means on 18 cells I am turning about 35000 rpm at the motor shaft and with the gear reduction about 25000 rpm at the prop(thats unloaded rpm) Theres some pretty wild brushless power out there. If I push that 9XL I could probley get into the 50's for short runs but I'm in no rush to burnup my esc in a plastic boat. The set up in the video is an oval racing set up not straight line. I guess this Villain is about as far away from a stock Villain as you can get. Some of the new brushless motors cost as much as the RTR Villain kit I think I'm pretty well done building this Villain and if I ever get the chance I'd like to build one with a Single 700motor on a dual drive gearbox with a single center rudder.

    Arrow Got A Suggestion

    i got a stock villian and it has 2 motors, you should put another hacker brushless in it.
