Power and Style with A New Look
Traxxas faithfully captured the incredible looks and performance of the DCB M41 catamaran in a detailed scale replica that is versatile, fun, and fast. 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.


Replica Catamaran Design - Based on the full-size M41 Widebody by Dave’s Custom Boats, the Traxxas M41 uses a catamaran design with two parallel hulls of equal size. This configuration widens the hull’s stance for increased stability with less hydrodynamic resistance. M41 gets on plane almost immediately, letting you get to the fun faster—to the tune of 50+ mph on 6s LiPo power.

50+ MPH Speed - M41’s extreme Velineon® VXL-6s™ Marine brushless power system transforms 22+ volts of LiPo power into furious acceleration and 50+ mph speed. M41’s high-performance hull gets on plane quickly and efficiently as it speeds across the water. The hull’s extra wide stance makes it easy to enjoy full-speed runs because the boat stays planted and stable thanks to innovative design.

Ultra-Stable 40″ Hull - Big Boat, Big Fun! M41 is a water-roosting speed demon that’s also a work of art. At just over 40 inches (1 meter) long, the M41 creates a commanding presence on the water. M41’s large, versatile design works well in a wide range of conditions. M41 is stable and easy to control blasting across the waves in a big lake, cruising past the shoreline, or running top speed on a smooth pond.


Details

Rigid Internal Structure - M41 uses a reinforced transom to provide a solid mounting surface for the control and drive systems. The ESC, receiver box, and steering servo bolt securely to the tray while the motor attaches independently to a motor mount. In just a few quick minutes, the electronics can be removed for maintenance.

Detailed Cockpit - Traxxas faithfully reproduced DCB M41's artfully sculpted cockpit with an acute attention to detail, from the gauges and speakers to the steering wheel and seats. The detailed cockpit flows with the rest of the boat to become a complete work of high-performance art.

Flex Cable Drive System - M41 features an efficient and reliable flex cable drive system that mounts securely to the internal structure. This unique installation provides easy access to the various driveline components for quick maintenance or upgrades.

Quick Release Flex Cable - M41's clamping collet holds the flex cable tightly and centers it perfectly with the motor's output shaft for smooth, efficient operation. The collet releases quickly with a twist of the included wrench for easy maintenance. Once loosened, the prop and flex cable simply slide out, making it easy to keep your boat running in peak form.

High-Performance Prop - M41's prop gets the hull on plane quickly to reach maximum speed with the least current draw. Traxxas engineers tested countless prop configurations to find the perfect balance of performance, efficiency, and durability. Molded composite construction makes the prop light and tough, with no balancing or sharpening required.

High-Strength Aluminum Hardware - The rudder, rudder support, and drive strut are extruded and machined from rugged 6000-series aluminum alloy for maximum strength. This added rigidity allows maximum power transfer and razor-sharp handling when bolted to M41's flex-free transom. Vivid blue anodizing gives the parts modern style with a high-tech look.

Stainless Hardware - M41's dual trim tabs further tune its high-speed performance. The trim tabs are precision die-cut and made of bent form stainless steel to resist corrosion. The help keep the M41 stable during high-speed runs.

Factory-Applied Graphics - M41 makes a big visual statement with its bold graphics as it blasts across the water. No painting or decaling is required the graphics are pre-painted so you can get from the box to the water quickly.

Easy-Access Hatch - M41's hatch is secured by a single body clip and removes in seconds for fast and easy access to the hull interior. No sealing tape is required, and a specially designed drip rail in the hull channels away any water that washes over the hatch.

Body-Clip Lanyard - A flexible rubber lanyard keeps the body clip secured to the hatch so it's always at the ready. It's just one of the many small details that makes a day at the pond with M41 fun and easy.

Virtually Unsinkable - The foundation of M41's extreme performance is its all new hull. An accurately rendered replica, the precision engineered DCB M41 hull is fast and stable. Built in foam flotation makes it virtually unsinkable.

Stainless Steel Hex Hardware - M41 uses corrosion-resistant stainless-steel and nickel-plated hardware throughout for good looks, easy maintenance, and lasting performance.

Waterproof Electronics - Waterproof electronics are a must in the marine environment. Traxxas electronics are fully waterproof (not just water resistant). The speed control, servo, and receiver all feature rugged waterproofing protection for dependable operation you can count on.

High-Torque Waterproof Servo - M41 demands a powerful steering servo for responsive performance, and Traxxas delivers with the 2056 high-torque servo. O-ring seals make the servo completely waterproof, and there's steering muscle to spare with 80 oz-in of torque at your command.

Sealed Receiver Box - Traxxas' patented waterproof receiver box routes wires neatly through a special watertight seal. A blue O-ring allows easy access to the receiver box without losing its sealing properties.

VXL-6s Marine Electronic Speed Control - Designed for 6s LiPo power, the VXL-6s Marine transforms 22+ volts into 50+ mph speed on the water. The VXL-6s Marine is fully waterproof with integrated water cooling in the case and thermal overload protection for reliable all-day performance.

Velineon 540XL Motor - The 1800 Kv Velineon 540XL motor is optimized for maximum power and efficiency in marine applications with ultra high-temperature sintered neodymium magnets, a precision-balanced rotor, and high-speed ball bearings.

Water Cooling System - A pickup in the aluminum rudder sends cooling water to the motor and ESC. A sealed motor jacket flows water directly around the aluminum can for maximum heat transfer. This efficient design helps M41 keep its cool. run after run, for trouble-free all-day fun.

TQi Radio System - The high-output Traxxas TQi 2.4GHz radio system delivers superior range, precision, and control. It is Traxxas Link enabled so you can add the optional Wireless Module (part TRA6511, sold separately) to monitor your battery voltage, temperatures, and even speed using your smart phone (sensors sold separately).

Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) - TSM acts like a reassuring hand when you need it to help harness M41's brutal 6s power for maximum acceleration and top-speed passes. With a catamaran hull as stable and predictable as M41's, you may find that you don't even need it. TXM lets you adjust the amount of assistance from off to 100% right from your transmitter.

Accessory Triple-Axle Trailer - Transport your M41 to the lake in style with this fully detailed scale replica triple-axle trailer (part TRA10350, sold separately). Install the optional winch (sold separately) for a truly authentic boating experience.
