A 6-minute guide to RC Boats

RC boats have become increasingly popular among those people wanting to take their love of remote-control vehicles to the high seas. Water lovers enjoy to race, sail and perform tricks using their RC boats. These boats come in different varieties, like pirate ships, military ships, nitro-powered speed boats, warships and sailboats. Radio or remote-controlled boats are the only known option for hobbyists wanting to have a watercraft vehicle. [caption id="" align="alignleft" width="300" caption="S2 Wind Speed Sport Racer"][/caption] There are three standard types of RC boats, gas and electric and nitro. Gas-powered RC boats need to be fuelled with gasoline to run. The controls of these types of boats are battery-operated. However, there are battery-operated boats which are controlled by electricity. Its running duration is shorter compared to the one which is operated by petrol. If you want to get involved in high-speed powerboat races for long lengths, choose a gas-powered RC boat. But, if you intend to use the boat for simple leisurely sailing, the electric-powered RC boat would make the perfect choice. When you�re planning to purchase an RC boat, whichever type you choose, just make sure that it has a great controller frequency. The gas-powered types usually have frequencies ranging from 25MHz � 75MHz. To get enhanced signal transmissions, try changing these frequencies to crystals. RC boats can be bought in two ways; either it�s already assembled or one which you need to build from scratch. For both the young and adult, building an RC boat from scratch can be very entertaining and rewarding at the same time. It can be very entertaining to construct, design and paint your very own boat. If you�re a novice, it�s better to go for simple boat kits. Afterward, as you gain confidence with your building skill, you can proceed with more difficult RC boat kits. To be on the safe side, make it a point to follow the steps provided in the instruction manual. Simon Lawrencenever gets tired of playing withRC boats. Since a very young age, he has always been excited with RC toys and his RC boats. He loves meeting people who also share the same love for remote control toys.
