The original Binary was always popular, but the new V3 promises to break new ground with its new Smart Sail Control that helps minimise the potential for capsizing. With intelligent software built-into the receiver, the Smart Sail Control can sense when the boat is hit by a gust of wind and tilted at an aggressive angle of inclination from the water. At this point the system will automatically release the sails, aiding the boat to return to an upright position. This package includes a 99% Ready-To-Run 2.4GHz Digital Proportional Radio System, Powerful 9G Rudder Servo & 9G Sail Servo, Smart Sail Control Software, and a Display Stand. Just 7 x AA batteries required.
This guide is for hobbyists and RC sailboat enthusiasts looking to enjoy the Joysway Binary V3 Catamaran Sailboat. The Binary V3 offers an enhanced sailing experience thanks to its Smart Sail Control, which minimizes the risk of capsizing. Keep in mind that while the boat is ready-to-run, you'll need to provide the AA batteries.
