Now about this boat:
PROS:
It's fast
It's fun
It looks good.
CONS:
Difficult to adjust the steering. The rudder isn't centered. The trim on the remote helps some. I took it apart, but the problem seems to be with the servo. Not a deal breaker, I can live with it. It's an inexpesive RC boat.
IT DOESN'T SELF RIGHT ITSELF!!! If you are using on a lake or pond BEWARE. It will flip and and not flip back!!!
I'm using in my pool so not a big problem...I can reach it with a net.
I do have the BOW protector on...not sure if that could affect the self righting feature, but it doesn't self right itself for me. IF YOU ARE RUNNING ON A LARGE BODY OF WATER WITH NO WAY TO RETRIEVE IT LOOK OUT! IT WILL FLIP AND IT WON'T FLIP BACK!
OVERALL:
For the price it's a lot of fun in a pool or somewhere you retrieve it if it flips.
