It looks great on the shelf & a hobbyist might want to add some paint to the parts to add to its scale look.
It comes with 2 batteries which each seem to last a good 20 mins.
There is no on-off switch which is a good thing because you should never leave these li-on batteries plugged into the toy when not in use.
It did not get any water inside in mild lake conditions & I think it can handle a little more than that.
A great gift for a nautical RC enthusiast.
