Questions & Answers
Real questions from real customers. Why not ask your own?
Hi, do you have the chargeble battery for the Southampton tug?
Bob Horan / 6th May 2021

Yes VZ0065 would be the upgrade battery

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Do you have spare rubber tyres for the Southampton tug
Valerie Bradfield / 11th January 2020

Afraid not sorry

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Will this have the working smoke funnels as with the Richardson version? I like the smoke but prefer the colours on the Southampton. Also can you recommend a battery upgrade for this model as I believe the one supplied is not great. Thanks Nic (looking to purchase the first week of January)
Nic / 21st December 2019

Yes, these have the smoke function.

VZ0065 is an ideal upgrade battery and should last around 2.5 times as long as the stock 800mah battery

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Where can I get smoke liquid from and where do I put it in
Michael Ware / 27th May 2019

We do smoke oil here 4401080

Smoke generator is housed in the wheel house of the model, and pumps out of the 2 roof stack exhausts!

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Hi is this the boat with working light, horn and smoke
Steve / 24th January 2019

Yes to all three!

  • Led lights in cab an around the wheelhouse
  • Horn is on one of the rear buttons, on the back of the transmitter
  • Smoke generator is housed in the wheel house of the model, and pumps out of the 2 roof stack exhausts!
Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Can the RC Southampton tug be used on salt water?
James King / 30th July 2018

Yes, but salt water use will require higher levels of maintenance.

Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Does it give an indication when the battery is low? As the run time is pretty short and I would want to ensure I could always get it back to land. Thanks
Emilio / 4th March 2017

There is no low voltage alarm, however you can tell when the battery is running low by slower performance.
