What's the first thing you think of when I say the word, "Traxxas"?
Most will think of the highly advanced Revo. Or perhaps the legendary T-Maxx?! Maybe pro-electric persons like myself are quick to remember my first Stampede?back when they were still in kit-form! Yeah, it's been that long!
Did you also know that a large majority of the R/C community has no idea that Traxxas has a Marine division? Yes?.it's true?and that would mean great fun-on-water! I've been looking for a boat for quite a while and thought this is a perfect opportunity to do so. After nearly 10 years of dedicated service from my Traxxas Stampede, I figured that they must be doing something right. So I decided to get a boat and add the Traxxas Villain to my fleet.
Let's take a deeper look into what makes this baby float, and hopefully, Fly On Water!
