The
Mini-Z Formula boat: It measures about 9 inches in length and just under 3
inches wide. That means they can be run in a small pool, or even a really
big bath tub! No more driving for miles to find a large body of water to
run a big boat. These machines can run just about anywhere you can find a
small amount of fresh water. The Formula Boats include rechargeable Ni-MH
battery pack so all you need to do is charge the battery pack, put some AA
alkaline in the transmitter, and you're ready to go. A trailer is also
included, which allows the boats to be trailer-towed in style by any
Kyosho Overland series truck, which also doubles as a charger. The
included electronics, which are made by KO Propo, are covered with a
water-proof coating, so there's no risk of damage to the electronics even
if water gets inside the hull. An FM radio system is installed so signal
integrity is much better than standard AM systems, which will help to
ensure your boat will never get stuck in the middle of the pool. The
steering servo is contained within the outboard unit, and the prop is
powered by a large, high-revving motor that sits inside the hull. The
shaft angle in the lower unit can be adjusted to keep the nose of the boat
out of the water, which makes for higher top speeds. For better cornering,
the drive angle can be reduced.
