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

By Juana Gamble


The Dragon Force yacht recently entered the radio controlled sailing market. The RG65 was created with specific motives in mind. The designers at RC Yachts wanted to provide people who showed interests of joining the sport with an alternative sailing machine. The idea was to provide a competition boat that would be affordable for sailing hobbyists who may not continuously keep up with the sport.

The yacht was designed using the popular Mark Dicks' "Ice" boat as a basis, which is considered a huge success in competitive sailing. The design includes a keel made out of aluminum that perfectly fits into the stiff hull. Also, with a standard deck layout, all the sheeting points come pre-fitted during production. All electronics fit right below the deck, including the 2.4GHz radio, rudder, and 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.

Taking into consideration of the likely market demographic for this yacht, the boat comes with an easy manual and only needs about 2 to 3 hours of box-to-water installation. Weighing at around 1200g, the boat is expected to perform better in slightly fast breezes and dismally in light breezes. This is aided by the design of the hull and the rig.

The Dragon Force yacht is uniquely more efficient than its competitors. It has a very light design, and the top notch turning controls help racers navigate it a lot better than other RC boats. Even more, the boat is priced quite low, which is perfect for novices who aren't exactly sure of whether yacht racing fits their interests. This is a very basic boat, so if you want to competitively race it frequently, you will need to make a few enhancements 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.

The Dragon Force is the perfect boat for new sailors though, and the motivation behind purchasing this yacht outweighs the criticism of its performance and make. When you buy this boat, you don't expect it to be a top notch radio sailing yacht that will help you win competitions. This is a boat for newbies who have a passion for RC sailing and want to gain more experience.

As in any sport, enjoying yourself is far comparable to merely winning competitions. Your passion for sailing can grow when it is just a hobby. Sooner than later, a new racer won't have any problem purchasing a better yacht that is 10x more expensive than this yacht when the hobby becomes more serious.

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.
