Does the boat flip when you caught a fish. How can i add reverse

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

if a big size fish! yes, It will be flipped. the trick is to keep you finger next to fishing line? keep your eye on the bopper? go up and down same for the boat.

Loreen,I never used the boat to fish. Unfortunately, I do not know how one would add a reverse function.

Yes - It is like most reels. There is a finger tightening small screw on the opposite side that permits you to switch sides. It is great for the money as long as you are not trying to reel in Marlin.

No there is only one direction, no reverse. I live in fl never cared for the reverse, I never knew people like that feature for winter. Hope this helps

yes it works the same in both directions, has a lever to flip to select which way you are reeling te cable, in or out.

No it does not. Reverse works very good. Can't say enough good things about this boat.

I'd like to add that a very large portion of the steering comes from the back. Assuming you've got it facing the right direction, put the strongest (usually heaviest) paddler in the back. Paddling AGAINST the way you're going is much faster for turning (but slows you down). If you're going to paddle with the direction you're going, make sure to make wide sweeps - Further away from the boat in an arc motion will turn you more in each stroke than if you make short strokes parallel the boat. If you're only riding with one rider, sit nearest the back you can without making the front point up. Put gear in the front to counterbalance.

Under the boat. Yes & yes. Knob: 5 forward and 3 reverse. Works great. Pretty fast, really. Only issue for us: cover is too small and once rain fills compartments, only solution is bailing them out, including battery compartment, which fills despite it's cover.

You have to loosen the tightening knob so that it can rotate up out of the water. I just lift it up off the round flange that holds it when it's time to move and place it inside my jon boat. It comes right out. You can't keep it in the water beyond trolling speed. Also based upon the angle of the sonar sensor it forms a cone. For every ten feet of depth it sees six feet diameter at the bottom.

I tried fishing from it. I forgot to drop anchor or tie off. I hooked what turned out to be a 5 1/2 bucket mouth bass. He took me for a long ride across the lake. He towed me until he gave out. It was a strange way to catch a fish. I didn't reel him in I reeled me over to him LOL Now I tie off to a bush.

The best way to answer this question since there are steps to do it is to go to u tube and type in your question and videos of how this is done are there, it is rather simple once you watch the video but to try to explain it is impossible .Fishing Friend Jim

No, it does not have reverse. There are times when "reverse" would be nice but if you compare the other features to the price, you are getting a great deal. The boat is a lot tougher than you would think.

Yes it does reverse. Not sure of the exact speed, similar to the forward driving speed.

Yes. If anything physically causes the motor to stop turning, it will automatically reverse direction.

it is a left handed model. That means you turn the crank with your R hand, like a R handed spinning reel, but, bait casters are usually opposite.

It's the same on mine... I haven't used to much because my boat is being repaired but I can recall I could not find the fish finder function. Please let me know if you manage to make it work.

The trigger on the remote has a position for reverse but the boat does not reverse
