Develop the skill of moving a model yacht upwind - trim and fine control are crucial! Radio controlled model sailboats offer a challenge to even experienced sailors. Basic models usually offer steering and main sheet control. Most models will sail in very light winds and in general the deeper the keel the more stable the the boat will be upwind. Many model yachts are supplied with Radio Control Equipment pre-installed, whilst others require extra items to complete. If power is preferred try one of our Radio Controlled Speedboats
