Yes it comes with a remote. I would suggest getting the. Miss GEICO 17 2.4 Catamaran RTR. That's what I use to race them. Be sure to buy the tape to keep the water out! The barbwire is awesome, fast and will flip over and auto correct when you push the gas. You might want to look up extra batterys. Too much fun.

It does come with a controler and yes you can run 2 boats at the same time it's way fun:)

The boat we purchased came with a remote. We purchased two boats to race. Both came with remotes.

I wouldn't buy it without the remote. Dont know how you would operate it without it or how you would operate two boats w same remote. Just beware of overheating charger and battery. Ruined mine somehow and got the run around w warranty

My barbwire came with the remote controller to operate the boat. I know that for sure. I still have the box the boat came in and there is a cutout in the styrofoam for the remote. Can't recall for sure, but I think I had to buy the batteries and charger separately. BTW - great little boat!!

I noticed it said that it did not come with remote control but it did , see picture . We have twin grandsons (11) so we purchased two, my husband did "research" on these and yes you can use them next to each other , they like to race, they received very good ratings and the feature they have where it automatically flips back over when tipped was highly recommended ! Hope this helps !

It normally comes with a remote control. Try to check with the reseller who sold you this.

It's an 8 intch modle car that you paint and put together your self. If you have the know how you can make it into a remote controlled car. But it is NOT made like that to start

You can operate it without the remote. You should have the instructions to show you how to do it. If you bought it new return it. My first one I bought did not have the remote I sent it back and amazon sent me a new one that had the remote included.

Yes it comes with one remote control and you have to order the head sets. (You will want them for the quiet times for you) Be sure you order the car hooks if you order the head sets. Keeps them safe. We ordered the Farenheit HP-11S Swivel Ear Pad Single Channel Infrared Wireless Headphones.

Yes, like any other boat-like toy. It is not radio controlled or drivable per say. Included motor allows you to move rudder but with you hand by manually moving it. Essentially allows you to control which direction of circles you want the boat to go, or straight for that matter.

When I purchase my Astoria there was no remote included. I would strongly recommend reading what the vendor includes with the sale. FYI, my experience with remotes, they work good at first then break down or need new batteries. I simply hard wire in a wall fan speed control unit.I sincerely hope that this helps you.

This product does not come with a remote control. It requires a power supply which should be close to the pool. make sure you align the white line on the Robot end of the power cord to the white line on the power supply box or it won't work. it is a great buy, i use it every few days. Clean the filters every few uses.

I have the same boat. The 55 lb thrust and a 48" shaft work fine for me. If you are using the remote, you can't use the foot control at the same time. I think the remote is much better than the foot control for all fishing conditions, including tight spots.

The frequency is basically the language with which the remote "talks" to the boat. If you buy 2 they will have different frequencies and operate independantly, with their own remote.

Ok, so I am new to the RC boat world and wondered the very same thing. There is plenty of room in the hull for expansion it would appear. The boat does well with what it came with and is a great starter boat for my 7 year old, I would love to see a lot more speed and Batt. Life. We get about 5 Minutes of runtime with the factory setup.

No remote control. Somewhere on the web, I found one with a remote, but when I went back to order it, I couldn't find it. This particular one does not.

It's a nice boat . It's more fun if you have like 5 of them and start racing with your friend in lake or pool .

My grandson has not fished with it yet. It is an awesome rc boat. He and my husband love it. It goes quite fast. Not sure about the reverse. Sorry I was not much help

Yes because you can bind each remote specially to each boat, just make sure you bind at separate times as not to duplicate the bind to more than one boat. It explains this easily in the Manuel!!!

These boats have the same frequency so they cannot be run at the same time. It would be nice if the vendors would give the frequencies in the description so that it wasn't a trial and error process to find boats that can be used at the same time. Two boats that can run at the same time are: 23" Ht Radio Control Rc Battle Warship Boat Cruiser Destroyer and the Electric Full Function QUALITY Big Size Remote Control 4 CHANNEL Patrol Craft Police Airship RTR RC Boat if that helps.
