Tipmant Mini RC Submarine Toy Remote Control Boat Underwater Electric Diving Water Fish Tank Kids Birthday Gift (Yellow)

UPDATE: The seller contacted me about this and apologized. I returned the bad one and re-ordered a new one. It was worth the wait. My grandson loves it. It runs fast and has an ingenious system to dive and surface it seems to work like a fish swim bladder. I found it easy to adjust to get neutral buoyancy, not he drives it around the pool and it is is favorite toy. Response is great even at 1 meter depth. "Captain, Dive the boat" he says then dives it, drives it around and then back up. Battery life is great - over 30 minutes of play, and it charges fast He even dropped the remote in the pool. I panicked but no need it survived the dunking. Great toy. Hopefully the bad i got first was an aberration, but this is great and I know it was not a special checked one as i ordered myself. My grandson loves it Dead on arrival, refused to take a charge until I let the charger stay in for 8 hours. I closed the connector lid, the green LED came one. I put fresh batteries in the remote controller. Pressed the buttons..... the green LED on the sub flashes but the sub just sits there. It does nothing. Waste of time and money.

I am almost positive that the controller was dead on arrival. The lights on the sub came on, but, the controller did zilch. No up, down, forwards or backwards. Not worth the 30 bucks.

Great fun (in my swimming pool) once you "get the hang of it". Works great, does all the remote functions well. The only problem is that you must use care when submerged, as if you exceed recommended depth, it cannot receive signal from remote. It is supposed to automatically surface when the batteries are running out, but I haven't tested that feature yet. WELL WORTH the price for fun (I'm an adult). Finally, I enjoy watching my dog chase it around the pool, and become confused when it submerges, only to have more fun when it surfaces a distance away and comes back towards her to play some more. Again, worth the money for fun value.

Pretty cool product. It's certainly very cheap, but my expectations were low and it works well and was fun in the pool. There are several reviews and YouTube videos of this in action so simply Google them and you can see how it performs. You do have to shake it a little in the water to get the air bubbles out of the steering pump, otherwise it won't steer. What I thought was the coolest part is it actually works like a real sub in that there is no propeller to move the sub up and down. It actually dives and surfaces through and internal plunger that changes the displacement. This allows you to tweak it and achieve neutral buoyancy. Very cool!

Right and left thrust motor did not work out of the box. But very fun nun the less. Going to get another one coming and keep my fingers crossed that I receive a fully functional one. Just because it is so fun in my 200gal fish tank.. they all seem to be made in China and just like anything from there it is a shot in the dark on there quality...

This was a gift for my Grandson. He loves it and plays with it in our pool a lot. I was surprise how well it works and how it would go all the way to the bottom of our 6foot deep pool, or my grandson will sit on the step and sail it around to the other end of out 28foot pool. Great range. Say all of that to say it's a great sub and we are very pleased. One note the remote is not water proof so we taught our grandson to be mindful and keep the remote out of the water. Also we found that when he would deep the sub to the bottom and let it sit. after about 10 seconds it would automatically rise to the surface using a programed auto surface. Pretty cool. Thank you!

Not a good buy! I bought 2 for my Grandsons. One worked for a day and then no longer would submerge. The second came with no antenna, so I got a replacement. It came broken. Not happy with this product!

Followed instructions and tips from here, made sure rubber cap was off when charging and in place when closing the hatch. tilted down to get rid of bubbles in water. Ran it for at least 15 mins and still had juice left, though trying to drain all the way before recharge (not sure if i need to). this is fun, fun little toy for the tub, pool or static water. it dives well, turns well, and is quick for the tiny little propeller in the back.

Good little toy, fun and easy to use.

I was able to use this toy remote control submarine once. It is heavy rather then neutrally buoyant or prone to float. It was unable to keep a straight corse when under power and when not under power promptly sank to the bottom of the water. At the bottom it filled with water and stopped working. It was cheep but only had about five minutes of fun with it before it broke. It was in a deep bath tub maybe three feet of water.

Non fonctionnel, très très décevant!!!

N'a pas fonctionné que quelques minutes...!!!??? À retourner pour remboursement

Terrible thing! Unable to charge it right the first time!
