Whether you're a first timer or have years of experience as an RC boating enthusiast, the Rage RC Eclipse 650 Sailboat is the ideal sailboat for you. The Eclipse 650 hull is blow-molded from ABS for added durability and the attractive pre-applied trim design gives it the look of a full-size sailboat when you're sailing your local lake or pond. For convenience, the Eclipse 650 arrives pre-assembled with the sails partially pre-rigged to help make getting on the water fast and easy. Plus, it's the ideal size to fit in either the back seat or trunk of your car for heading to your local body of fresh water. For performance, the Eclipse 650 includes a 17g "drum-style" winch servo that provides power and smoother, more scale-like operation than traditional servos.
The Eclipse 650 is a RTR boat, so everything you need to get started is included in the box - including a 2.4GHz interference-free radio system, a "drum style" sail winch servo, and pre-printed rip-stop nylon sails that provide durability and performance. The Eclipse 650 even includes the 8 AA batteries needed for operation - 4 for the transmitter and 4 to power the servos, plus an easy to assemble display stand to show off your new sailboat when you not out sailing. After a few minutes of final assembly, it won't be long before you're waiting for a breeze to sail your new Eclipse 650 across your local pond or lake!
