A couple of the main turrets came warped along with one of the secondary gun turrets was also warped and one of the crains was missing the male piece so it could be inserted onto the deck of the ship. I sent pictures and spoke with a couple of reps about the matter. Still waiting

The quality of "Bismarck" is overall very good. The whole details, the turrets, the superstructures, the whole parts are fantastic.I, for my own person, will only ad Camouflage on this nice vessel and put another ESC on it without making noise. According to EU-Law i have to change the Radio, because in Germany you need an EC sign with the correct documents to sail the vessel on the water.In general i like Bancroft Boats. My first one was the "Island Cutter" and now i bought the "Bismarck".Shure, Bancroft isn´t very cheap, but the price you have to pay for it is o.k. . Try to build this boat by yourself and you will see how many hours of work and how much money you have to spend until you reach the same result as Bancroft. Shure the body and the whole structure is made in China, but who cares... Nobody.I recommend this modell , the Bismarck. Nice.

Dear Colleagues from MotionRC,My name is Paulo n I'm writting you from Brazil.I'm building a local version of the Bismarck, scale 1/200, origanally it was sold in our market to be a static model but It could be also transformed in a R/C version. Problem is that it was launched in our market 10 years ago n unfortunatelly the spare parts are not more available. I have all part necessary to conclude it, unless the parts to to transfor it on a R/C. In this sense, I'd like to know if you can sell me all this part separately, the engines, axis, propellers, rudders, etc..... The radio, servos n battery are not needed, I can fiund it here easylly, but may be I'll need the "esc" too for the engine.... is that possible ? If positive, ple let me know the price for all this parts !Looking forward in hearing from youMy best regards, Paulo
