HobbyKing™ Bat 1 RC Land Yacht (Kit) (AU Warehouse)

Description

Land yachting combines the grace of sailing with the thrill of motor racing. It's great to watch your land yacht skimming across smooth hard sand or a large tarmac area at high speed and with no noise just using the wind.

Full size land yachts hold speed records of over 126mph sailing at 3-4 times faster than the wind that propels them and now you too can enjoy the challenge and thrills of land yachting with the HobbyKing Bat 1 RC land yacht.

The Bat 1 has been designed by a renowned RC and full size land yacht pilot and it is available in 3 versions, "Almost Ready to Run", "plug & play" and in "Kit" form. All versions have a simple, rugged construction and are very straightforward to assemble. The Bat 1 utilises just 2 channels, one for steering and one for controlling the sail, it also has low friction ballraced wheels for super smooth free running and a colorful eye catching sail finishes the Bat 1 off nicely.
