  • Radio Controlled Boats: Pros And Cons Of Jets
    By: John G. Kelly | - Jet boats are a growing area of radio controlled boats.

Jet boats clearly have some advantages but they are not a panacea and have their own failings.

    PROS
    There is no propeller to get entangled in weeds and line. The water supplies the power by sucking in water from under the boat into a pump-jet inside the boat, then exp ...

  • Radio Controlled Boats: Nitro Vs Gas Compare And Contrast
    By: John G. Kelly | - Radio Controlled Boats that are driven by Nitro and Gas are very different. It makes sense that you have good idea of the differences before you lay down your hard earned cash. Let me break it down for you.

  • Changing The Crystal Or Frequency In A Radio Controlled Boat
    By: John G. Kelly | - When I started out in radio controlled boats I went electric as it was easy and I learned a lot about how to control the boat without smashing it into the shore or other boats (although some of that happened anyway).

  • Radio Controlled Boats. Should I Go Electric Or Nitro?
    By: John G. Kelly | - This dilemma just needs to be thought through. Radio controlled boats increase in complexity and maintenance as they increase in size and power and by type of power they use.

And by that I mean an electric model that's powered by rechargeable batteries. Why? Because electric models are by far the simplest to operate and maintain. The ...
