RE: Traxxas Spartan Brushless
Bought a used SuperVee 27R off a guy on OSE for $170 shipped. 100% rtr with only 8 runs on it. Looked like a great deal and boat is in perfect shape. Older guy said his health problem dont allow him to get to the lake often enough with his boats so he's selling a few off. I'll take some pics and post up when I get it.

Hell yea and that 1800kv gold can 6 pole motor is suppose to a beast of a motor. Add a transom doubler to the "R" hull to ensure you don't get any cracks in the transom.

that beats a $400+parts plastic boat!

I double checked and the guy listed the SuperVee as the 27 with not mention of it being an "R" model. So maybe I'll have the plywood in the rear? If not can someone please post a link to where I can get one for the SuperVee? I'm also thinking it would be a good idea to go ahead and get some "speed grease" for the drive cable too. Just to ensure this used boat is RTR when she hits the water.

I've yet to find specs on this boat..
I do know they are using the new esc out of the UL-1 and the 1800kv motor out of the SV27R
and 29'' length
ORIGINAL: joeyhatch11
That one looks like the ProBoat Miss Geico, which is something I'm considering now. I'm going to check the spec for Motley Crew though. Thanks for the info.

RE: Traxxas Spartan Brushless
From those pics it looks like the shaft that's installed needs to be pushed in more huh? In the ad at first it wasn't there at all but the guy had it listed RTR so I asked him about it and he said he'd put it in and include an extra flex tube and prop.

RE: Traxxas Spartan Brushless
looks clean and those are upgraded trim tabs, make sure your silicon jacket doesn't leak, mine works fine to this day but some people had problems with them.
