The Model is designed in 1:350 scale, derived from a detailed 1:200 model. It can be built as a model for static display - RC function is not possible at this small scale.It requires refinement and is only suitable for skilled model builders. The masts are printed as part of a sprue to ensure they do now break during shipping.
