Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG

USS Enterprise CVN-65 Aircraft Carrier Motorized - (Tamiya)

$110   

Minihobby received permission from Tamiya to directly copy their all-time classic 1/350 USS Enterprise. As a result, the parts and detailing are almost identical to the 1980s Tamiya release. If you are an R/C (radio control) fan, the main difference is that the Minihobby kit was designed for operation in water and there is plenty of room for a larger battery and any R/C equipment you could imagine. This is the motorized version with an electric motor gear box and drive on all four propellers. If built for water operation or static display, it includes all of the well-know features and details of the Tamiya model. Never started. Most of the parts are still in the factory sealed bags. The few that are not factory sealed have been inventoried complete. Includes electric motor and motorizing hardware. With decals and instructions.
