He patented a model boat which was operated by remote control. But he didn't actually invent it. Radio remote control was going on in India in 1894 by Bose who would use radio waves to ring bells remotely. He'd also detonate explosives that way too. This is a good decade before Tesla's patent after showing off his boat at Madison Square Garden to the press.

He got the credit - but he wasn't the first - or even close to being the first.

Why did Nikola Tesla invent the remote control?

His genius mind came to the conclusion that sound and energy were transmitted by waves in the environment. With that in mind he invented the Coil. He put it to use by inventing the radio and the remote control making the Tesla Coil the basis in anything wireless. Now, he invented it to guide explosive boats as weapons against the enemy. The Navy didn't think so and Tesla was not a good at selling. The fact that it could become the most sold out toy didn't occur to him. He got that patent since 1986 and he was playing with it.
