Fast
The Villain EX uses a water-cooled marine electronic speed control (ECS). At low speeds, the fully proportional EVX Marine ESC allows precise dockside maneuvering in forward and reverse. Lay on the throttle and the EVX pushes over 14 volts of power from two battery packs into the twin Titan™ 550 Marine fan-cooled motors. This speed control was originally developed for the powerful E-Maxx monster truck and has a proven track record for ultimate performance and reliability. It's made in the USA by Novak Electronics.

Ssmooth
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.

Stable
Some boat designs, such as hydros, require that the water be glass-smooth to run or a small wave will catch the sponson and flip the boat. In the real world, the wind blows and water gets choppy. The Villain EX can run in rough water that leaves hydros and other designs back at the dock. The Villain EX utilizes a proven 31-inch deep-V hull design that slices through rough, choppy water with ease. The proper weight balance and low center of gravity help keep it upright providing unsurpassed stability. Molded strakes in the hull, along with the counter-rotating propellers, allow higher turning speeds.

Reliable
Usually, one of the biggest challenges for electric boat enthusiasts is keeping the electronics dry. Not so with the Villain EX. It's quipped with a sealed radio box to prevent water from damaging the sensitive electronics. Everything is encased, even the steering servo. The plastic cover uses a Twist-Lock™ fastener for easy access and positive sealing against the rubber gasket. There are no flimsy, taped-down hatches to bother with. You can count on the performance from the tough, molded ABS hull and durable, proven drivetrain. The BEC circuit in the electronic speed control maintains steering control, even when the batteries are nearly discharged. Built-in foam flotation provides extra security by keeping the Villain EX afloat if it should ever accidentally flip over.

Twist-Lock™ Top Deck
Removing the top deck is quick and easy with the exclusive Twist-Lock™ fastening system. A simple quarter-turn twist is all it takes to gain fast access to the battery and electronics.

EVX Marine Electronic Speed Control
The EVX Marine electronic speed control (ESC) connects two 6 cell battery packs for over 14 volts of awesome power. High-frequency, high-voltage operation draws less current, making the Villain EX both fast and efficient, with long run times. The EVX Marine ESC is equipped with a BEC circuit to eliminate the need to carry separate receiver batteries in the boat. Less weight equals more speed!

Water Cooling
A cooler speed control flows more current, more efficiently. The EVX Marine electronic speed control is equipped with a water-cooled heat sink to take away power-robbing heat. The ingenious design relies on a new cutting-edge material that conducts heat, but not electricity. It allows all three banks to be joined without short-circuiting the transistors.

TQ™ Radio System
The Villain EX is a powerful, fast boat that requires a high-performance radio system. The included TQ (Top Qualifier) 2-channel pistol grip transmitter features high output for up to a quarter-mile range, electronic trim controls, servo reversing, and a low battery indicator.

Twin Titan™ 550 Marine Fan-Cooled Motors
The Villain EX is powered by twin, fan-cooled, Titan 550 Marine motors. The 14+volt, high-output Titan motors feature armatures that are 30% longer than those used in standard 540 motors. These motors are matched to the props to provide the best overall performance and run time.

Sealed Radio Box
The sealed radio box protects the critical radio equipment and sensitive electronics from water. This helps the Villain EX to deliver many hours of trouble free performance boating. It's quick and easy and doesn't require flimsy unreliable tape.

Gear Reduction Drives
The Villain EX drive system uses dual drives, with adjustable 2:1 gear reduction. The blue-anodized, T6-aluminum motor plate and composite-nylon motor mounts provide rock-solid mounting for the two Titan 550 Marine motors. The gear ratio can be adjusted by simply changing the 32-pitch pinion gears on the motors.

Twin, Steerable Outdrives
The twin steerable outdrives direct the thrust from the efficient, surface piercing propellers for instant steering response and superior control. The trim angle is adjustable to precisely tune performance.
