The model
The Graupner Premium Line model is a reproduction of the USS Lassen in 1 : 100 scale created on the base of the original plans. Like all the Graupner models of the Premium Line the destroyer impresses through its high level of details – right down to lifejackets and buoyancy rings. The hull, the structures and the cranes are spray-painted with matt colors; the metal parts are photo-etched. The 1,5 meter long model impresses so particularly through its realism. As the original also the RC ship distinguishes with its excellent driving characteristics, the high speed and maneuverability. The Almost-Ready-to-Run (ATR) model has a fiberglass hull, structures made of laser cut ABS parts and thrusters / propellers made of metal.
You still need a transmitter and a receiver. Furthermore, a speed controller, and a battery, e.g. lead acid battery 6 V / 12 Ah
Access to the RC components is spacious and the installation is easy. All accessories and spare parts around the ship model and all for the hobby model making and model sports can be found in the Graupner Online Shop.
