INTRODUCTION
The Traxxas DCB M41 Widebody raises the bar for reliable,
high-performance RC boating with 50+mph speed, waterproof
electronics, stable handling, and the run-after-run ruggedness
you expect from Traxxas—all in a Ready-To-Race
stunning, factory-applied graphics. The DCB M41 Widebody is
powered by the VXL-6s Marine brushless speed control and motor
system, developed specifically for high-performance marine use.
The long-range TQi radio system keeps you in control with switch-
on-and-drive convenience. Stainless-steel trim tabs allow stable,
precise handling. The machined-aluminum drive strut and rudder
assembly channel brushless power directly into the water for
incredible speed, aggressive cornering, and blistering acceleration
that lets everyone know you've got the wildest ride on the water.
Please keep in mind that this boat is not a toy, and is not intended
to be used by children without responsible adult supervision. This
is due to the inherent dangers that are always associated with any

when launching and retrieving boats. We're confident that you will
enjoy the power, speed, and reliability that the DCB M41 Widebody
has to offer.
