Traxxas M41 Catarman RTR R/C Speed Boat

Extreme Power and Speed. The DCB M41 Widebody catamaran, designed by DCB (Dave’s Custom Boats) founder Dave Hemmingson, is one of the largest models offered in the DCB M-Series.

With its precision sculpted design and a pair of Mercury Racing 1350 engines, it speeds across the water at 175mph! Traxxas faithfully captured the incredible looks and performance of the DCB M41 in a detailed scale replica that is versatile, fun, and fast. The catamaran hull delivers the speed, stability and confidence for which the full-size M41 is famous, allowing you to have fun wherever your marine adventures take you. The M41 replica is equally at home blasting across the waves at the lake on a fun run or exploiting its 50+mph speed on a favorite stretch of smooth water. The razor sharp handling lets you carve turns with authority and precision and yet, offers easy control while cruising by the shore.

Ready-To-Race® The Traxxas DCB M41 Widebody comes fully assembled with a TQi(TM) 2.4GHz radio system, Velineon brushless power system, applied graphics, and detailed instructions. Traxxas backs the M41 and all of our products with industry-leading support that is second to none. A staff of skilled representatives is on-hand to answer your questions via phone, website, or e-mail. Unmatched parts support allows M41 to be serviced with parts and support from thousands of hobby dealers worldwide. Traxxas protects your investment with the Lifetime Electronics Warranty. Traxxas goes the extra mile to ensure that your RC experience is easy, fun, and fast!

Note: Please specify (choose 2-3) color preferences, if any, in the order comments at checkout. We will make every effort to honor your choices.

40" Widebody Catamaran Hull

Based on the full-size M41 Widebody designed and built by Dave’s Custom Boats, the Traxxas M41 gets its unique, aggressive appearance thanks to its use of a catamaran hull design. Instead of using a monohull with a V-shape design, the catamaran uses two parallel hulls of equal size. This hull design offers more than a different visual presentation the catamaran offers a wider stance on the water for increased stability and less hydrodynamic resistance. This also lets the M41 use less energy to propel itself across the water making it incredibly fast. The M41 gets on plane almost immediately, letting you get to the fun faster - to the tune of 50+ mph on 6S LiPo power.
