Fighter 550 RTR Boat w/Python 75mhz
It was obvious the first time we punched the throttle on the Fighter 550 and watched it leap across the water that this was not a normal beginner boat. Its sleek low- profile design keeps as little of the hull in contact with the water's surface as possible leaving the powerful Mabuchi 550 motor free to do its thing without a lot of drag. In fact when powered by a 7-cell stick battery pack the Fighter 550 practically rides on the prop and straight-line speeds approach the 15-mph range on a fresh charge. Trust us-it's a blast. Instant gratificationWhile the fast three-hour assembly time of the regular Fighter 550 kit isn't bad we have to admit that being able to leave the hobby shop and head straight to the pond with the ready-to-run version is much more gratifying. The kit version will still have its place with folks who already have a radio or simply want to choose the radio control system they want to use.The Fighter 550 RTR's preinstalled radio equipment is 100% JR(r) and as good as anything you would choose for yourself. The transmitter that's included is JR's tried-and- true Python pistol grip that features analog trim dials so you can fine tune throttle and steering. On board is JR's reliable R-102 AM Mini Receiver and two Z250 Standard Race Servos: one for steering and one for the mechanical speed control.The only thing the boat does not include is a 6- or 7-cell stick pack a charger and 8 "AA" batteries for the transmitter. With a typical 6-cell battery like Dynamite's 1500mAh Dyna-Sport pack the Fighter 550 RTR can reach speeds of as much as 13 mph and will run for about 5 1/2 minutes on a full charge. And for real kicks try Dynamite's 2000mAh Ultra-Sport 7-cell pack especially if you want to race. The extra cell gives you quicker acceleration and boosts the top speed to 15 mph. Powered by a 7-cell stick battery pack (not included) Speeds approach the 15-mph range.
