The Villain EX is equipped with a new propeller design. These new surface-piercing propellers are engineered to operate with speed and efficiency using full-size boat technology. The propellers are counter-rotating to prevent torque roll and eliminate the need for drag-inducing trim tabs. The dual, steerable outdrives direct the propeller's thrust for ultra-precise steering response. The trim angle of the outdrives can be adjusted to change how high the bow rides in the water. The quest for ultimate speed began with the battery connector. As today’s batteries store more and more energy inside their cells, traditional battery connectors became a roadblock, unable to deliver all the energy the battery is capable of outputting. The new Traxxas High-Current Connector opens the door for unrestricted current flow. The waterproof Traxxas EVX-2 is optimized to deliver massive power from dual 7-cell battery packs. The EVX-2 packs a serious punch, belting out over 16 volts of power to the twin 550 high-torque motors. Titan 550 motors feature 30 per cent longer motor armatures than a standard 540 size motor for monster big block torque. An internal fan helps keep the motors running at optimal temperatures for maximum power. The Traxxas Blast is designed to be fast, reliable and easy to drive. It’s one hot performer with its powerful 20-turn Stinger™ motor, efficient shaft drive, and the exclusive Nautica™ waterproof electronic speed control. Nautica’s digital circuitry provides fully proportional throttle control and long run times. The steerable outdrive, deep-V stability, and surface-piercing prop work together to keep the Blast on a solid course in rough water. You can even adjust the trim angle of the outdrive for the perfect ride. So what’s with the love affair between guys and radio controlled trucks? What's not to love about Radio Controlled Trucks? These speed demons have all the ingredients for a good time! They are fast and furious, eat dirt for breakfast, and can fly over moguls like crazy dare devils! The Velineon Brushless Power system takes the guesswork out of enjoying the benefits of world-class brushless power. The system components work together as an optimized package, engineered from the start to deliver the ultimate in efficiency, speed, and run time. With the Bandit VXL, your battery selection determines your speed and skill level. Velineon accepts the widest range of battery types, including 3-cell Lithium Polymer packs (3S LiPo packs). These packs pump out over 11 volts of power for intense, skill level 5 speeds beyond 70mph* Nothing else even comes close.
