Go Fly a Boat!
I knew there was such a thing as " flying radio controlled boats", but it wasn't till I saw a youtube video that I knew I needed to have one. I've been into rc boats for awhile and just love the fact that I've found something that gets me to want to go out and get away from from it all... other wise I'm in front of a computer all day and night, like I'm addicted or something.But you know I must confess, I always thought flying one of those rc airplanes would be the coolest radio controlled skill to have. Talk about things whipping by really fast. So fast in fact that one mistake and your plane ends up being toast-o-rama. I've heard this story time and time again.Enter the flying boat. Now we're talking. If you've already checked out the youtube video you can see that it's a ground, water and air rc model. You don't even have to fly it until you've mastered the ground and water maneuvers. I like the fact they have hovering capabilities making for a softer landing. Model structure and material with breakage safety design, greatly lowers the extent of crash breakage .The body is made with all special KP board. This is a rugged piece of equipment that even a newbie is going to be able to master in no time at all. I still bought two of them and although I was sure I'd crash and burn at least one of them, it never happened.( knock on foam ). Land, water,air combat anyone?
Update: Seems there's a problem at the factory and there's a stop in production at this time.Hopefully when they fix the problem I'll be back in business and the flying boat will be better for it. Meanwhile if you are new to rc boating go here to my
