HorizonRC.com Preview – Pro Boat’s Endeavor Sailboat RTR
Pro Boat's models have a long history of not just being great-looking but also being extremely user-friendly. They've taken this philosophy and applied it to the world of sailboats with their latest project, the Pro Boat Endeavor. In years past getting into this segment of RC meant hours and hours of following complex assembly instructions, rigging everything properly, installing the electronics and more. What was worse is that after all this work and labor, you never knew if you would be successful until you put your craft on the water for the first time, often to disappointing results. Pro Boat has made getting into model sailing easier than ever before. The Endeavor is a complete ready-to-run sailboat, meaning all the difficult work has been done for you before you even open the box. From the preinstalled radio system, included nimh battery pack and charger, detailed hull and more it is possible to be up and on the water in minutes, not days. Best of all is the on-board recovery motor system that makes it possible to return to shore in the event that the wind dies on you. We've caught up with Pro Boat's Derek Wagner and one of these gorgeous boats to find out what makes the Endeavor so special. Questions? Comments?

nice boat!
Nice
What transmiter does a RC boat use, plane or car? (DX3 or DX6i for example.
The Endeavor comes with a marine-specific 27MHz 2-stick radio system
ok, but i meant in general, there is such a thing as a marine radio?
how does the main sheet pull in? do you need a special redio or something? unlimited servos?
can you link me the parts needed?
It’s ready-to-run, it has all the parts needed to get you on the water and up and running.
Looks cool! I fly a Parkzone Corsair F4U RTF and ive always wanted to get a rc sailing boat! Do you recomend this Endeavor? and is the rigging difficult?
Horizon sucks. They sent me a chopper that didn’t work and refused to replace the receiver.
