I had ordered a South Carolina kit, with every conceivable accessory from strike models 5 days prior to the Treaty conference with hopes of completing the ship in one day, Steven frantically assembled all the required components and over night shipped them to myself. Sadly after two of my ships exhibited teething problems the project was sidelined, but I can vouch for the quality of everything Strike sells, as many have done before me, with the completeness of the kit, the vessel was able to be completely put together within 12 hours, this is by someone whom had not at that time installed any internals on there own. the Cage masts where an awesome addition to the already very complete kit. I had Promised Steven a write up following the build, Sadly right about the time my Pennsylvania sank at the Conference, my camera was ruined by a pump with an auto turn on.. I had initially wanted to raffle the USS Michigan off at our grab bag(?) final at the Conference, as my Pennsylvania and Pkreuzer where also just recently thrown together, both had problems which negated the ship from being completed, the Pictures lost where of mediocre quality as I am no photographer, but in it, with the time mark stamps, you can get a feel fro the incredible pace the ship was put together. The ship changed hands in a semi completed state, being returned to me, I have grown very fond of the Michigan, and though I have yet to fight her at a sanctioned event, she has had more running time than any of my other boats. I will attempt to load pictures stolen from the Treaty Yahoo sight showing the Michigan under construction. A special thanks to Steven at Strikemodels for the hair pulling leading up to all the national events he attended, and for the awesome quality of the products he continues to distribute, allowing those of us who are not R/C proficient to participate in this magnificent obsession. I recomend the South Caroina for anyone who wants to have fun with a cage masted battleship, or somone whos personal situation dictates a ship of its stature, immensly fun, and a real looker!
We do! I don't know if we have it as a stand-alone item, but if you send Stephen an email he can help you buy it. Stephen himself has a South Carolina for fast gun and has cagemasts. I'm at a conference right now, so don't have time to track down pictures, but he should be able to send you some.
Excellent. I'll add that to the list of various items I want to order from you guys. I should probably send out the order before it gets too pricey lol
