Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about the Voyager 400 Sailboat
Q: Is this boat powered by an electric motor?
A: No, the Voyager 400 is a fully unmotorized sailboat that harnesses the power of the wind. It comes with a battery-operated two-channel radio-controlled transmitter, which allows you to control the rudder and the sails. The rudder is used to steer the boat, while sail control enables you to adjust the sail's angle to optimize your sailing based on the wind's direction and speed.
Q: Can you clarify if there’s a motor?
A: The Voyager 400 does not have a motor. The vessel's movement relies entirely on the wind filling its sails, with radio control guiding both the sails and the rudder.
Q: What are the dimensions of the Voyager 400?
A: The boat stands at 26.5 inches (672mm) tall from the base of the keel to the top of the mast, with a height of 21 inches above the water surface. It has a width of 4 inches (100mm) and measures 15.75 inches in length.
Q: What is the speed of the Voyager 400?
A: The speed largely depends on the wind conditions. However, we advise against using the sailboat in strong gusts or winds exceeding 15 mph.
Q: Is it suitable for saltwater use?
A: The Voyager 400 can be used in saltwater, but it is not designed for choppy waves or heavy winds.
Q: Is the Voyager 400 radio-controlled?
A: Yes, the sailboat features two servos—one for the rudder and the other for adjusting the sail angle to catch the wind.
Q: What are the power requirements?
A: You will need four AA batteries for the transmitter, alongside light winds or a gentle breeze for optimal sailing.
Q: Does the Voyager 400 arrive fully assembled?
A: Yes, the Voyager 400 is ready to run (RTR). All you need to do is insert four AA alkaline batteries into the transmitter and charge the included LiPo battery inside the boat, which powers the radio control receiver and servos.
Q: How do I charge the LiPo battery?
A: Simply connect the battery to a port located at the back of the transmitter, a process that typically takes around 15 minutes.
Q: What frequency does it operate on? Is licensing required?
A: The Voyager operates on a 2.4GHz frequency, and no license is necessary.
Q: How do I access the inside of the boat?
A: To open the hatch, locate the “table” on the deck and twist it 90 degrees to release the latch securing the hatch to the boat’s deck.
