Sailing boat RC Drago 1/6

Easy to handle, transportable and featuring a distinctly sporty character, the Drago stands out as an ideal leisure radio controlled sailing boat, suitable both for relaxed sailing and for demanding model sailing enthusiasts.

A radio controlled sailing boat designed for the pleasure of sailing

Developed by Uwe Kreckel, a well-known author and specialist in radio controlled sailing boats, the Drago combines contemporary design with perfectly balanced sailing characteristics.

This leisure sailing boat has been designed to offer smooth, stable and realistic sailing performance, while remaining accessible to build.

Thanks to its detailed assembly manual, this radio controlled sailing boat is perfectly suited to advanced beginners, while also appealing to experienced modelers looking for a refined RC model.

Technical design and realistic sailing performance

As a radio controlled sailing boat, the Drago stands out with:

• a large open cockpit typical of modern daysailers,

• a twin-rudder system ensuring excellent maneuverability,

• a wave-piercing bow equipped with an extendable bowsprit,

• an evolving hull shape guaranteeing healthy and well-balanced behavior.

This leisure radio controlled sailing boat is supplied as a complete kit, including:

• carbon mast and boom,

• pre-cut sails,

• complete rigging and fittings.

The absence of a self-tacking jib allows for finer and more realistic control: at least two sail winches are required to independently manage the mainsail and the jib, just like on a real sailing boat.

High-end build quality

The foundation of this radio controlled sailing boat is based on:

• a high-quality fiberglass hull,

• laser-cut and engraved plywood parts,

• 3D-printed fittings for a faithful appearance.

The multicolored lines visible in the cockpit enhance the realistic look of this radio controlled sailing boat, while the self-adhesive decal representing the stylized dragon gives the Drago a strong and instantly recognizable visual identity on the water.

The movable skipper figure “Luca”, available as an option, adds an extra dimension and brings this leisure sailing boat to life.
