REMOTE CONTROL
SHIP MODELS
In
general, we charge only about $1,500 for the
labor and electronics for a medium size model
boat (about 3' long.) Labor includes making the
boat model waterproof, installing RC
hardware and electronics, and testing the model
on water. RC parts include motors, propellers,
shafts, ESC, and radio system.
If
you want
special features such as smoke and sound, it is
only $1,000 extra.
If
you know to install the electrics, we can
make the model "RC ready" for you. This means
making it waterproof and installing working
propellers and shafts and rudders.
For those
who are new to remote control boat
and concerned about possible future breakdown,
don't worry. The RC area is highly
accessible, and replacing RC parts is relatively easy. Within 1 month of purchase, in an unlikely
event that a part (motor, ESC...) is not
working, we'll send you the part for free. After
the warranty lapses, you can buy parts either
from us or at any hobby stores.

Special Request:

"The 62" Normandie did arrive yesterday in
perfect condition. The model was packed so well
I don’t think anything could have really
happened to it. Thank You. The ship exceeds all
expectations. You and your team are truly fine
craftsmen. This is my favorite ship, and I’m so
happy I chose Model Ship Masters. Not only is
the ship a work of art, but with the lights and
being RC, it’s like the Normandie is back alive.
Thank you so much. Sincerely, George W."
