Conquer the waves with Bancroft, the world’s premier RC Boat brand available exclusively at Motion RC! Bancroft’s line of RC vessels is as vast as the seven seas, specializing in high scale RC Warships, Yachts, Speedboats, and more! Equally at home on your mantle with its included display stand or sailing on calm lakes or pools, Bancroft vessels are made of high-quality materials including ABS, fiberglass, real wood, and photo-etched brass and steel parts.
As exhilarating as it is easy to drive, the Bancroft Swordfish delivers speed, control, and style in a convenient Ready To Run (RTR) package. Open the box, charge the included battery with the included charger, insert your own AA batteries into the included 2.4Ghz radio transmitter, and toss the boat into the water! All of the electronics are pre-installed, and the boat's running gear is setup for balanced speed and maneuverability out of the box without any additional adjustment. The Bancroft Swordfish sports a slick racing scheme in either a blue, red-orange, or yellow colorway, accented by a gloss black hull and race-inspired decals.
Display this racing boat on your mantle or enjoy it on the water with this functional RTR (Ready to Run) model. Delivered Ready to Run (RTR), the Swordfish can be operating within minutes of arrival, using the included 2.4Ghz radio transmitter and 3S Li-Ion battery. Only four AA batteries and minimal assembly is required.

Not as advertised
This RC boat was advertised as ready to run but it isn’t. If you use it as it is delivered it will sustain water damage and begin to smoke/stop working....read moreThis RC boat was advertised as ready to run but it isn’t. If you use it as it is delivered it will sustain water damage and begin to smoke/stop working. After complaining, the staff told me I needed to wrap the components in a balloon before use. A balloon was never provided and was not mentioned in the instructions. What part of “ready to run” includes wrapping electronics in a balloon? When I contacted the company they said the item needed a balloon and that they would provide one. Then I was told that the company did not have any balloons. Instead, I was sent a remote that was incompatible with the RC Boat! Lol. I really wanted to enjoy this product but I never really had a chance.
