This is my Radio Controlled 1/48 scale Battleship, USS Tennessee BB43. She is 12ft / 4m long and I am still adding things to it. I had to build its own trailer to transport and store. She is launched and retrieved the same as a normal boat and I built her own WWII dock to park it when on the water.
The working search lights are surefire tactical torch heads, which puts a good solid beam of light across the water. Besides the navigation lights she also has superstructure illumination lights together with working street lamps on the dock. All four motors are water cooled with cooling fans throughout the ship and directed out the funnel. She is close to 100% scale as I added things like a bow thruster etc. All of the other actions you can see in the movie.
She is made from Timber, sheet metal, white metal, fibreglass, bits of my kids toys, anything that I could lay my hands on really.
I hope you enjoy watching as much as I have enjoyed building her.
