CLick On THe Pic to BUY TODAY!!
I have a lot of experience with all types of r/c models and this was a massive disappointment!
The boat arrived dead. I charged up the battery, installed everything per the instructions . . . and nothing functioned; no motor, no rudder (it did float so I guess I should be thankful for that much).
Following the directions again, I called Megatech tech support. However, now tech support is ONLY available via email, only on weekdays, and takes 24-48 hours to respond to an inquiry.
After explaining the issue via email, Megatech said they might be able to service the boat, so long as I shipped it back to them (at my expense) and paid an additional $12. 99 for return shipping . . . to fix a NEVER functional boat. BTW, thanks to Ahmed in Megatech support for his note telling me to read the manual, just what I wanted to hear a the end of a string of email with Megatech’s utterly useless support people!
Let’s ignore for a moment that my boat was broken and that Megatech has non-existent tech support. I did get the boat to run by replacing the radio with one of my own (a $100 Futaba tx/rx). Here are my notes on how the boat finally ran.
1. Battery life, advertised at 15 minutes, is optimistically more like 8 (I got only two lengths of a backyard swimming pool before the boat started slowing down quite noticeably).
2. There’s no reverse (this boat has a forward only speed controller that needs to be initialized every time you plug in the battery).
3. I had serious bouncing issues, where the boat would porpoise, not settling into a plane. Again I followed the instructions, trying various locations for the battery, to no avail.
The bottom line. . . this thing wouldn’t ahve been worth the $80 I paid for it . . . if it had actually worked out of the box. Save your $$ and buy something else preferably (for your sanity) from another manufacturer.

This toy is junk. I got the first one for my son’s birthday and it didn’t work, we had to send it back and get a replacement which was not a problem- amazon shipped me out a new one right away. Except the second one was a bit better, at least it kinda turned on (with the reset button on the inside), but the remote wouldn’t make the propeller go. So now we have to send this one back and are not getting a replacement this time. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone.

the boat comes in lots of colors and i got the yellow one. it’s decently fast and we were suprised that it could go out as far as it did since it was so small. this cristmas i need to get another one cause kids always want what the other kid has.
