“The model itself is nicely detailed for its scale but I personally feel that it’s a little overpriced for what you actually get and was disappointed to see that a week later, Motion RC had the 1/150 scale Missouri on sale for the same price as the 1/200 scale version, ah, just my luck. The model came damaged in several locations as the rear crane was damaged, two of the 5” guns had barrels broken off, starboard observation platform was broken off, approximately 4” of starboard midship railing was damaged and several Orliken AA guns we’re bent. Luckily, all of the broken pieces were floating around in the box and I was able to glue them back together. I was also able to repair the majority of the other damage. This damage was caused by rough handling by the delivery service and not by Motion RC. My biggest issue is that I’ve called Motion RC twice to let them know about how I received it and to see about a replacement crane that I would pay for. After calling twice and leaving my info with an associate twice, I was told on both occasions that a person from customer service would call me back, that was over a month ago and have not received any response since. 10 minutes before writing this review, I bought the PT 596, I hopefully will receive that in one piece”

“I’m completely new to RC boats. No directions for controller, found quick start up on YouTube only. No directions for charging. Did not know how to charge, the small 3 wire pin is to connect to a digital checker, did not know to use small connector for B3 charger. Did not know what red/green lights mean. I want to buy an extra battery, the one that came with it is a xt60 connector, why is spare battery in spare parts section a xt90 connector? Also, it’s sold out. So what’s next option? Admiral 2800 that came with it, can’t be found on website.No directions on how to ballast. I had to go to YouTube.”

“This model has some good detail , but you think for that type of money , it would come with an audio engine maker instead of that sound the electric motors make and the Main gun would hooked up to the rudder and when you turn port or Starboard the guns would turn too and no night running lights etc. I can try and make those adjustments myself and install nav lights , but for 1k it should already do that instead just cruising around and looking good”

“I love the ship but for 1000.00 you think that they would secure the 5" guns that cover the SS screws would be held in better. They are going to fall off as soon as I put it in the water and loose them. And the cheap stand. What the heck Motion. Come on China.”

“This ship is awesome. Very detailed and fun. Was very easy to ballast out and it sits perfect for scale cruising. Everything arrived in perfect condition and I could not be happier with this purchase.”
