Electric 24 Swift Patrol Craft RTR

The Pro Boat PCF Mk I, a 1/25 scale model, pays tribute to the brave individuals who piloted Patrol Craft Fast (PCF) vessels during the Vietnam War. This RC boat is a true delight for veterans, their families, and history enthusiasts alike, as it captures the depth and accuracy of the original design. On the water, the Pro Boat engineering delivers outstanding performance that will impress all RC boat enthusiasts.

The real PCF boats, also known as Swift Boats, were 50-foot all-aluminum craft developed by the U.S. Navy to combat insurgent activities. Initially used for coastal patrols, their missions later expanded to include transporting Vietnamese forces, blocking enemy arms and munitions, and deploying SEAL teams for counter-insurgency operations. Despite its impressive level of detail, the Pro Boat PCF Mk I is not just a static display; it is equipped to execute daring missions at your local lake or pond.

Powering the boat are two 390 brushed motors with aluminum heatsinks, providing the necessary muscle to achieve scale speeds and maneuver with finesse. The included Spektrum SLT3 radio and 40-amp ESC/RX 2-in-1 provide reliable control of the on-board electronics, allowing you to operate the boat's LED lights directly from the transmitter.

Beyond the functional aspects, the Pro Boat PCF Mk I is meticulously detailed. Its molded ABS hull features a .50 caliber gun on the bow, M60 machine guns, and a .50mm gun on the transom, as well as life rings, docking tires, light pods, antennas, rail chains, and a flag. For those seeking an even higher level of authenticity, the boat is ready to be upgraded with an optional rotating machine gun turret (SMPSX108 Micro servo and SPMA3008 Y-harness attached to the steering channel required).

The PCF Mk I arrives expertly painted and finished with an accurate military trim scheme, enhancing the boat's scale realism and ready-to-run ease. All you need to do is add your choice of 3S LiPo battery and charger, and you're ready to embark on your own patrol missions.

In summary, the Pro Boat PCF Mk I offers incredible scale realism, high-quality Spektrum electronics, dual 390 brushed motors, realistic submerged propulsion and rudder systems, and a highly detailed ABS hull. This RC boat is a true gem for enthusiasts who appreciate the rich history and engineering behind the original PCF vessels.
