Why it stands out
The RX Remote is PowaKaddy’s remote trolley without GPS. It uses a handset with a range of up to 100 m, and a dial and LED on the trolley rather than a screen.
It weighs 14 kg and folds long. The Motocaddy M7 Remote costs a little more but adds a 2.8-inch screen and downhill control.
