Finding a boat that’s suitable for introducing youngsters into the R/C hobby is not always an easy task, yet here is something that’s absolutely made for the job. Small enough to be sailed on the garden pond, yet detailed enough to be eye-catching and convincing, Henglong’s 1/72-scale twin screw harbour tug looks the part and would even make a great canvas for additional painting and detailing by more experienced modellers.
Offering full proportional control in forward, reverse, left and right, whilst also featuring scale Kort nozzle steering, look forward to a 15-minute run time, a comfortable range of 50m and take-anywhere portability.
Supplied with everything you need in the box (save two AA batteries for the transmitter), the Mini Tugboat comes with a selection of detail parts to attach, pre-installed wheelhouse lights, a 2.4GHz mini steering wheel transmitter, 1S 600mAh Li-Ion rechargeable battery, USB charge lead, screwdriver and instruction sheet.
