Radio Control in Model Boats

Radio controlled model boating began to establish itself as a popular hobby in the 1950s and there was great excitement, even incredulity, among onlookers when they realised,that a model was responding to commands sent from a radio transmitter. Nowadays a bystander is more surprised if a model does not have a radio! In the interim, the equipment used has made great strides, to the point where the customer simply has to plug in the batteries, switch on and it all works: no technical knowledge whatsoever is needed. However, guidance is needed to install the radio in the model and learn how to use it to its best advantage.John Cundell is an.author of many years' experience at club, national and international level. In his capacity as editor of Model Boats magazine he is very aware of the sort of questions likely to be asked by the "less experienced " and, perhaps more importantly, knows the problem areas likely to be encountered by the unsuspecting newcomer.
