Might as well post them here too

My traxxas Villain EX..

Water cooling on the cans and the brushes.


Octura 447X props setup in inboard rotation (opposite rotation than stock because its faster that way)


On the water!






Enjoy!

Cool! Is that the same boat that you brought to berwyn last saturday?

yup.. I painted it and put good props on it since then.

Are you bringing it to MJ to show it off?

Do you have a stand for it? both of mine had some cheap plastic stands. I figure a little wood stand would look awesome.

looks sweet with those blades on the back. Have you run it since the mods? Any noticable difference?



The one side actually looks like it has three blades on it, but after looking at it a little better, I see only the two.

I think I got ya, both motors turn inwards towards each other. I was wondering what you were talking about.

good question!

He posted the performance difference on the other forum. I'd hate to have to see him have to type twice.... LOL

lol.. well copy and paste

Woohooo!!! I got out on the water just before it started to rain here and tested the inboard rotation (reverse prop rotation from stock) on the villain. Its a blast. the boat sits right up and just barley skims the surface and that is with the props angled as close to parallel to the hull as I can get them to keep the nose down. The water was really choppy and man this thing would easily catch a couple inches of air off the chop. It deffinetely made the boat faster. hopfully tomorow the water will be glass because I think it will be a real screamer. one thing for sure no more hard full throttle turns anymore because would for sure flip the boat but its a great mod if you can handle it.

ok so why do you have 2 blades on one with 3 blades on the other. That was my reason for typing "good question"

there isn't they are both 2 blade props. I think you are seeing the corner of the Nova's box in the background as another blade on the prop.

I see, thanks
