  • Patent number: 8327963
    Abstract: The remote controlled utility vehicle provides a substantially all purpose vehicle for carrying a plethora of personal items and needs. The floor contains a plurality of closable storage compartments and also numerous tubular holders for items like umbrellas and fishing poles. The removable rails help contain any cargo, and the side rails provide flip up solar panels. Most beach and like outings see substantial sunshine. The solar panels can therefore power the apparatus without need of the charging port, which might be used elsewhere in preparation of apparatus uses. The separately controlled drive wheels are linked to rear free wheels and provide, together, treaded track power to negotiate even difficult and especially sandy terrain. Positioning the drive wheels in front features best propulsion and steering characteristics, with treaded tracks providing excellent traction. Flip down cup holders provide convenience, as does multidirectional lighting.
