Making waves at big racing regattas including the America's Cup, the
USA-76 is now available in a handy-sized R/C version. With the cooperation
of the main sponsor Oracle BMW Racing, the finished results are
breathtaking. The ABS injection molded hull is artfully finished in high
quality paint and fitted out in minute detail. The additional 5 sailor
figures included (also sold separately as a set of 5 / No. F026) are each
formed as if they were performing their respective tasks during a race to
capture the air of tension and teamwork. It even creates that atmosphere
as a display model, so you can imagine its bow cutting through the swell.
Although its high quality finish would make you think it was for display
only, it is actually a fully operational high performance yacht and not
only includes mast and sails, but is also complete with installed radio
control system. Just add the batteries and you're ready for the starters
gun. Also includes high quality aluminum display stand. Using exactly the
same physics as the real yacht, you can trim the sheets and sail around a
course to your hearts content!
Features:
Uses a detachable bulb-keel that passes through
the deck to make transportation easy.
Reflects true racing yacht sailing efficiency.
A perfect undercoat finish is covered in high
quality paint that produces a hard surface with a deep luster.
Fully assembled. Just hoist the sail and insert
batteries and you're ready to start looking for the next wind shift.
Both jib and main sails are pre-cut and
printed, with sail battens already glued in place.
The hull shape delivers ideal three dimensional
efficiency in response to wind and delivers excellent sailing
performance.
The 5 sailor figures are in the middle of the
action. Each is hand painted and captures the different emotions under
race pressure.
The sail servo and pulley produce plenty of
stroke to open up and run downwind, or winch the sails in for a close
haul. Combine this with the rudder to operate it exactly like its full
sized original, but without the seasickness. Kyosho has put the
majesty and excitement of yacht racing at your finger tips, so why not
take the helm?
