Default RE: Proboat apache cat questions

for the villain, try tower hobbies, i know they have it. The thing about the villain is that you still need to get a charger and two 7.2volt battery packs. The shockwave and the apache both have the same hardware and motors, just diferent hulls. Instead of going for the 5 pound motor and battery's that will sink such a small hull, go for the traxxas titan 12 turn 550 motor. Yes, i said it. 12 TURNS AND 550 SIZE!!!!! this means that it won't overload the electronics, and it will go really fast. In a car(what it is advertised for) The car tops out at 35mph out of the box. On a boat you could fit an extra cell or two in there and probably go 35-40 ish. B/c boats aren't quite as fast as cars. This motor is available for $20 from tower hobbies.
