Summit and Villain EX
Ойын-сауық
My Summit 4WD towing a Villain EX, launching it and recovering it, all from radio control.
The trailer was custom made several years ago by a trailer maker who is no longer in business. I have no idea where someone can get a trailer made today.
The boat cover was custom made several years ago by a boat cover maker who is no longer in business. I have no idea where someone can get a boat cover made today.

Pretty slick and shallow ramp NICE BOAT
That's really cool how you have a little trailer for the Villain EX. I'm gonna try and find one for myself :D
I just love the Villain, I am having one after watching some of these videos on here, I think the truck and trailer are fantastic aswell, thanks for showing off I like it, many thanks.
Awesome video man. I love it and now I want a Villian with a trailer lol just no where to run it haha. Good stuff and great driving!
@lolroflbot123: Hi, this trailer has 4 wheels. They are on an 'axle' that is really just an all-thread rod. At the time the wheels did not have back up nuts to keep them tight. They only had acorn nuts on the outside of the wheels. Because the wheels on one side of the trailer roll 'backwards' against the threads of the rod, they tended to unscrew themselves and fall off, and then their was nothing holding the wheel back from coming off the axle.
nice scale trailer!
my dad and i are making one at the moment and have a 2wd brushless. we are making the tralier out of metal and old r/c monster truck wheels. by the way love this video
great product
sweet video
Supercool! Now you just need to trade in the Villian for a Spartan
@timgaylehughes: This is the Villain "EX" I like this boat a lot. It is very easy to set up and run. It performs very well, and it handles flat or choppy water with aplomb. It is enormous fun for the money. It is very, very durable and rugged. Unlike the current crop of RTR fast electric boats, that are routinely burning up ESC's and LiPo batteries, the Villain EX does not suffer from any of those maladies. It's slower than those FE's, but it is far more reliable and you can count on it 100%.
That was sick and funny
sweet vid man. i have a summit and villian iv,and plan to build my own trailor also.
Nice Video!!!
lol at the wheel falling off the trailer at 0:44 haha
great idea
very good vid congratulations
@timgaylehughes: I am very satisfied. It is an engineering tour de force. The thought that went into creating this truck is staggering.
Cool video!
awesome dude
Verry good !
Well, no, I don't think I will make a video about the camera on the boat. lol... But I can tell you, it was just the same GoPro camera on the truck, as well as the boat. I just shot the scenes, changed the camera to the boat, taped it down, and shot those scenes. Then I edited the scenes together to produce the video you see here. :)
i love this video !
@xKmotx thank you so much for the advice and replying so soon!
@timgaylehughes: Yes, I do. I have about 20 or so built, and more in kits to be built. My favorites are the scale boats, the kind you can just set your throttle trim one or two clicks above stop and then cruise slowly for a couple of hours. ;)
cool, nice clip !
Very scaled, nice vid.
this video is so asome
thats awesome
Good video i like it
@timgaylehughes: Yes. It also took many 'takes', and switching the onboard cameras around. It was quite an involved project.
love it
he was just demonstrating the importance of tandem wheels :b
@xKmotx nice summit with the boat
Man, this is too cool. You should send it to traxxas.
DAMN THEM SUZUKI TRAILERS !11111111111
@teknofil007: Thank you for the nice comment. And, good luck with your new Bandit VXL. :)

*The boat cover was custom made several years ago by a boat cover maker who is no longer in business. I have no idea where someone can get a boat cover made today.*
@skylinegrechy Thanks! Good luck with your custom trailer! :)
Vielen Dank! Es ist ein "Traxxas Villain EX"-Modell Boot. Sie sollten in der Lage sein ein bei Ihrem örtlichen Hobby-Shop zu finden, sonst sucht ein online.
Cool! :)
THATS COOL
@summit485 *The trailer was custom made several years ago by a trailer maker who is no longer in business. I have no idea where someone can get a trailer made today.*
so this *trailer maker and boat cover maker* is someone that im sure you know really well and not obvious at all
Thanks! :)
Thank you! :^)
Hi, I personally do not own a Spartan but many guys in my club do. They are in a completely different class than the Villain. Much more expensive to buy, require more expensive batteries, are way, way faster and require more skill to operate, and are much larger in size. They are indeed nice boats, but not for a beginner in my opinion. Look at Proboat brand, some nice boats that are equivalent to the Villain in cost and performance. The Blast is small, slow, and you will be disappointed I think.
@Daylo97: I imagine there is someone out there making trailers you can buy. Search the RC forums and ask around in them. I mounted the trailer using a hitch I custom built for the Summit.
@ArcticAirsoft *The trailer was custom made several years ago by a trailer maker who is no longer in business. I have no idea where someone can get a trailer made today.*
@xKmotx how did you make the boat trailer and would it fit a traxxas blast?
Perfect vid! Liked it very much! Where you have bought this trailer?
haha wow that is so awesome!
did u have 2 people- one with the boat controller and 1 with the car controller?
It's starting to look like Traxxas only wants to sell the $500 Spartan!
@neilastragtemania: Thank you for your comments. :)
i would love to have that
where did you get the plans for the trailer and hitch?
@MrWilliam27: Yes, it was a custom ordered cover. Got it many, many years ago. I no longer have the contact info for the lady who made it.
where did you get the trailer or what did you make it with

LOL,You should take that trailer back to the tire shop and have that dude fired, he could have caused a major pile up on the freeway.
@TheCrazyd1996: I built a scale type custom drop down hitch and ball and bolted it to the back bumper.
