Style and Function in a Compact Racer

The Kyosho 40042S FORTUNE 612 III offers a compact, well-detailed hull and scale features that appeal to both display collectors and active sailors. At 612mm long it is easy to handle yet presents a realistic yacht silhouette on the water.

Designed for Balanced Sailing

Attention to sail shape and hull lines gives the FORTUNE 612 III a steady feel when trimmed correctly. The keel geometry supports predictable tracking, and the printed PE sails are engineered to provide workable elasticity and airflow for true-to-scale responses.

Ready-Assembled with Practical Transport Features

With a pre-painted, pre-assembled hull the yacht is quick to launch after a few checks. The supplied 2.4GHz KT-431S transmitter reduces channel conflict, and the separable rudder and keel make storage and transport less awkward.

Cleaner Ballast and Smart Display Options

The model uses lead-free ballast and includes an aluminium stand for maintenance and presentation. The set includes five pre-painted crew figures and various fittings to enhance the on-deck realism.

The Kyosho 40042S FORTUNE 612 III is a versatile choice for hobbyists wanting a compact, scale-accurate racing yacht with dependable radio control.

It performs best in moderate conditions. Near-coastal gusts and strong chop may overpower the small hull, so choose sheltered waters or lighter winds for consistent handling.
Replacement or spare sails can be sourced from specialist parts suppliers or hobby shops that stock Kyosho accessories. Keep a spare set if you sail frequently.
Store it dry, supported on the aluminium stand to avoid hull distortion. Remove batteries and ensure sails and rigging are dry to prevent mildew and hardware corrosion.
Basic spares include extra rigging lines, a spare sail, a few small fittings and service batteries. These items will keep you sailing if a minor issue arises.
