Customer Reviews

I wouldnt bother with it.
Very thin book, has little more than a few basic boat plans in it, even those are only 'loosely' based on their real counterparts. You can get better plans for free off the internet or in boat magazines. Also has a very small section on motors and R/C gear. Sent mine back, very unimpressed.

A great book for those who love to build all types of boats.
This book gives all the necessary explications of building, painting and driving all types of radio controlled boats. There are a range of scale, copyable drawings so that you can build your choice of a tug boat, a sport boat or any of the other 7 boats! If you're an advanced modeller or a beginner it doesn't matter you will enjoy this book either way.

Small radio control boats
This book is very good for the young novice. It starts them off with most of what they need to know. My grandson is delighted with it and is building the tugboat. OK its not postgraduate but on the other hand there is a dearth of up-to-date books about RC boats. I have yet to find one which adequately covers 2.4GHz!
