Force1 Velocity Blue Fast RC Boat- Remote Control Boats for Adults and Kids, Underwater Speed Racing Mini RC Boats for Pools and Lakes, 2.4GHZ Transmitter, 2 Rechargeable Batteries, Low Battery Alert

I would recommend this product for the listed reasons:-The boat has a lid on top for battery charging which is water tight and sturdy-The boat has a dive ability but it isn’t really what you think it it. It just bobs-The boat is very fast and very easy to control-The boat is good for kids 7 and above-The boat is very fun and kids will love it

Update: this company has insane customer service, they saw the review, reached out directly, and made everything right!I now have a fully working system and am super happy with the experience.If you have an issue, contact them, they will do what it takes.My issue was that the battery compartment screw stripped out, so the cover was not holding the batteries in place properly.So the first time I used it, it was fun. It has good speed, the controls work well. Sometimes too well, this thing can make some pretty sharp turns.However, I tried to use it a second time and it just flat out wouldn't turn on. I thought maybe I accidentally grabbed some old batteries, so I replaced them, and still nothing.What I discovered was that if I squeezed the battery compartment, it would work, but this obviously made it hard to operate. I ended up getting it stranded in the middle of a pond and just left it.I really wanted to like this, but it's just not made that well.

The best part about my purchase was the customer service. We ordered 2 boats and must've received a bad batch because right out of the box they didn't work. The customer service team of the product itself (not Amazon) was amazing! They immediately reached out regarding the note I put with why we were returning in order to resolve the problem. They asked our feedback and immediately shipped out replacements. They checked in with us every step of the way and were fantastic to work with.We're happy to report that the replacements work amazingly and how they're supposed to, so we did indeed just end up with an unlucky first purchase.They're very fun to zip around in our local pond and actually relaxing to play with. I do wish the batteries lasted a little longer and the remote felt a bit more substantial in quality, but they're great for the price.We do recommend bringing a portable phone charger with you if using them away from home. We plugged the battery we weren't using into that and swapped them out on site when needed.

The media could not be loaded. This remote boat is really awesome, I ordered it basically because I enjoy the rush of racing and my cousins convinced me it's about time I get one of my own. I like the design of this racing boat but I also really like how durable it is , I'm fairly new at driving my own and this is a great pro boat but it's also great for a beginner like myself definitely helps me practice my coordination . The remote is actually pretty simple to operate as well. This boat actually senses when it is in water so that makes things a lot easier . at first I did actually do some flips by accident I thought it was a goner but wow it has flip recovery which works like a charm, which is great due to the fact it's winter now would have been a cold swim otherwise. The batteries last longer than I expected and they dont take long to charge which is nice. It's pretty simple hooking up the battery and closing the lids. One thing that really has my attention with this boat is definitely the speed, it gives me such rush and I really enjoy it. This is definitely the fastest control boat i've ever had and i'm pretty happy that I ordered this one because it is so fast. I've lost signal with the remote neither so thats another pointer. it's definitely more durable and sharper than i thought it would be which is great. definitely a keeper this one.

What a nice little r/c boat I thought. That was until we ran it. So I bought this early for my son's birthday this month, June 15, of 2018. Bought in March and have had it stored away. Took it out on Thursday June 7 and thought I'd give it to him early as we took a camping trip from the 8- the 10th. I opened it and charged it up while I went through the instruction manual. I greased it and all as book didn't say if it came like so from factory. Seemed like it had some but went ahead and put some more. We setup our camping spot and hit the lake for some sight seeing and so that I may surprise him with his gift. He loved it. We put it in the water and ran like a champ. It's great, battery died and upon taking the battery out I noticed the motor was really hot,(it even has a "don't touch" symbol on it. So we relaxed and let it cool down before putting in the other battery and having another go. So we did just that, it "died" rather quickly; more like the motor burned out. Or so I thought, or I didn't charge the battery fully. I opened it up and indeed it was smoking and there was a charred surface around beneath the battery. Utterly dissapinted! We all were. That was on friday, our first day and 2nd use out of it. ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!! Says it has a water cooling system, yet there is no actual pump to pull water from whatever body of water you're running it in. Got home today, and disassembled it. Put it back together and gave it another go. Runs slow as in limp mode and battery died within a couple seconds. UTTERLY DISSAPOINTMENT!!! $70 down the drain. I can't even return it because the window closed in April. Ridiculous! I should NOT have to look into repairing it! How can I even get a refund or an exchange for a new one!!!!???!?!?!?! NOT HAPPY AT ALL!! I had to wait until it was in stock and went ahead and ordered it as I didn't know if I would order it this month let's say, they would have it in stock or not. What do I do in this situation. I'd like to make a claim for a faulty product!!
