R/C Star Trek Enterprise Spaceship
After having seen the design of this classic spaceship as a source of inspiration for a chandelier, a telephone a putter and bottle opener, we’re finally about to see it as the one thing many have been waiting for; a radio-controlled version of the Star Trek U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701.
Made of durable foam, this iconic starship is ready to take to the sky under your control. It features the 1st-ever touch-control controller designed to look like the communicator from the original series.
Here’s a video to give you an idea what it might be like to fly it:
Flip open the communicator with authentic sounds, move your finger across the touch pad, and off you go! Plug the vehicle into the charger that looks like the tricorder from the initial Star Trek series, and in 15 min. you’re ready to soar again!
The Radio-Controlled Star Trek U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701, estimated to arrive in May 2009, can now be pre-ordered for $79.99 from the Entertainment Earth website.

Yes Steve, that’d why I wrote “to give you an idea”. Sorry if it was a bit obscure.
I love what you’ve built, it looks awesome!
Thanks for your comment and links!
