HMS NORFOLK F230 in DRYDOCK for MAINTENANCE an A REFIT

That is very impressive!

I used to fix things like this, which is actually more similar than it looks:

BUT...we had a manual :)
 
It's stage lighting fixture, one of those that waggles about, changes colour etc.

It really is similar, though the control is not wireless (they use a DMX protocol) it's still a bunch of motors driving various things to the positions commanded.

Now that's either the real thing, or Ron has some serious competition for his sea builds!
