Why Dragon Force RG65 Is An Affordable Alternative In The RC Yacht Market

By Juana Gamble


RC Yachts has introduced a radio controlled boat for sailing newbies and hobbyists all the same. The Dragon Force RG65 was designed to act as a surrogate yacht for this specific market demographic. It offers a competitive yachting experience to those who aren't sure of their passion for the sport, or to those who sail less frequently than the regular competitor.

The foundation of the Dragon Force design is based on the "Ice" boat created by Mark Dicks. The "Ice" boat is a huge success in the market, but is aimed at serious racers who compete or use frequently. The keel of this alternative is aluminum and fits perfectly in its hull, the standard deck includes pre-fitted sheeting, and all the electronics are located right under the deck. The electronics include the 2.4GHz radio, the rudder, and the winch servo.

All rigs on the Dragon Force yachts are built with careful consideration of the RC boat structural regulations. The main rig of the yacht is accompanied by two other rigs to aid in better control and smoother sailing. These smaller rigs are unique to the Dragon Force yachts, making this yacht's design comparable to the competitors.

The boat is incredibly easy to put together. It comes with a straight-forward manual and only requires about 2 to 3 hours of installation. When you're done building this 1,200g yacht, you will see that it performs a lot better in fast breezes due to the hull and rig designs.

The availability of more turning controls and the lighter design of the boat makes it better for navigation, giving the Dragon Force an edge from its competition. It is priced well, making the boat incredibly affordable to many novices who are considering joining the sport. However, in order to use it in competitive races, enhancements will need to be made on it.

Dragon Force critics have pointed out that the materials used to make this yacht is cheap and unsatisfactory. Instead of a carbon keeled hub, it uses an aluminum keel. Also, the hub material is weaker and of lower quality, often times causing it to become thin at the bow section.

Due to the fact that this yacht was designed mainly for occasional hobbyists and novices, all the criticism against it doesn't have to be highly regarded. The cheaper materials are necessary to make the boat affordable, and are perfectly decent for the average occasional user. Those who frequently sail these boats should look into a different model.

If your occasional hobby turns into a serious competitive sport, you will not mind paying 10x more for a high quality RC yacht. However, when you are just enjoying yourself, this yacht should fit you perfectly. Start with this boat and make your changes when your passion starts to grow.

The Dragon Force yacht prioritizes customer loyalty. Whenever problems arise, you can be sure to easily reach very helpful customer service. Additionally, all spare parts are available to you if ever you need to replace them on your yacht.
