    Gary,
    I picked up two of your plan's. I printed this one on a regular size paper sheet. And rounded her lines for stripped wood. Just to see if it would work. Love the shape and she is beautiful as intended. Still have not built but I will soon. Also intending on building a larger unit with round hull... about 12ft long so I can play while inside. Any how it's a great designe anyone could build with patience and time and come out with something that will turn heads every time it gets wet. Nice job!!!!!!!

    Maestro, tutti i suoi video meritano un "mi piace".
    Ho constatato che le sue splendide realizzazioni, illustrate benissimo in ottimi video, sono basate su progetti della bearospaceindustries.
    Sono progetti efficientissimi e le navigazioni sono sempre molto fluide ed eleganti.
    Ho notato , altresì, che, il timone è sovradimensionato rispetto ad una scala 1:1. Immagino che questo sia dovuto ad una necessità.
    Io ho costruito un modello RC navigante a vela e a motore. E' una riproduzione storica, liberamente ispirato alle cannoniere della classe USS Unadilla, che erano piroscafi golette.
    Anche se il modello è incompleto, ho voluto effefttuare delle prove al lago. Ecco qui il video:
    ruclips.net/video/NTsYPwn58U4/видео.html
    Mi scuso per le pessime riprese. La goletta si può vedere bene solo nell'ultima parte del video.
    Secondo lei, maestro, questo modello (con un timone non sovradimensionato) avrà difficoltà ad effettuare delle virate quando naviga solo a vela?
    Il suo parere di esperto mi interessa molto e la ringrazio in anticipo per la risposta.
    Master, all your videos deserve a "like".
    I found that his splendid creations, illustrated very well in excellent videos, are based on projects by bearospaceindustries.
    They are very efficient projects and navigation is always very fluid and elegant.
    I also noticed that the rudder is oversized compared to a 1:1 scale. I imagine this is out of necessity.
    I built an RC model that can sail and sail. It is a historical reproduction, loosely based on the USS Unadilla class gunboats, which were schooner steamers.
    Even though the model is incomplete, I wanted to carry out some tests on the lake. Here is the video:
    ruclips.net/video/NTsYPwn58U4/видео.html
    I apologize for the bad shots. The schooner can only be seen well in the last part of the video.
    In your opinion, maestro, will this model (with a not oversized rudder) have difficulty making turns when sailing only?
    I am very interested in your expert opinion and I thank you in advance for your response.
    Per le vele ha usato il dacron?
    Did you use Dacron for the sails?

    Hello Gary, building your Flyer I've managed to put on some weight. Ten lbs less sail and electric gear, means the bulb on the keel needs to be eight lbs. Thinkiing I might wack off the front part ahead of the center board plate to reduce weight and elminate a weed catcher. Your thoughts Sir.

  • @jackcpo
    @jackcpo 3 года назад

    What a beautiful model thank you for posting it. Can you please tell me how you made the keel removable? Also I really like the way you did the shroud connection to the deck and if you dont mind Im going to copy that feature on a boat Im building for my as yet unborn Great Grandson.

    • @sailtails2775
      @sailtails2775  3 года назад

      The keels aluminum plate with a lead bulb cast on. It fits loosely into a trunk in the hull. The trunk extends above the waterline, and the keel is held in with 2 pins at the top of the trunk. See my video about standing rigging for details of how I make the pelican hooks to connect rigging to the hull. ruclips.net/video/oapKzQT9MQI/видео.html Cheers for the coming Grandson !

    Hi what kind of paint or finish do you use on the outside hull of the boat?

      Thanks for asking, the plywood hull, inside & out, is first coated with penetrating epoxy, then primed and painted with brushed on oil based enamels.

    Gary, Carlos here again, Need a little bit of help and information on rigging the winch line for the head sails on Flyer.I know it goes to channel 5 on the radio , but where on the winch line are the sheets attached to? Are they in the middle of the travel , or offset one forward and one aft? The servo only goes one way, and I can not figure it out. Also, is there a way to unattach the sheet lines on deck for transporting? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, CJG

      @sailtails2775  4 года назад +2

      There are 2 sail winches aboard. One sheets all 3 headsails together, the other sheets the mainsail. Thanks for asking.

      Absolutely lovely. I would find it hard to resist adding a big jackyard topsail! And she would lool wonderful snugged down to lower sails in a strong wind.

  • @carlosgutierrez6721
    @carlosgutierrez6721 3 года назад

    Gary, I bought one of your "Flyer" plans. Real good info, however you do not show where to belay the sheet for the topsail. I have tried and tried to see where you tied it off, but in the videos it is difficult to discern. Would be nice to see where it goes. Cheers.

    • @sailtails2775
      @sailtails2775  3 года назад

      Hi Carlos, I'll assume you are referring to the MAIN topsail. The lower corner (tack) of the main topsail slightly overlaps the gaff and has a long line which belays to the Fife Rail (aft pin, port side). The clew of the main topsail (corner near the end of the gaff) is simply connected to the gaff with either a loop of twine or a zip-tie. Sheeting for the JIB topsail is fairly well shown on the plans. More details of rigging halyards & sheets can be found on the last page of the instruction booklet included with the plans. Hope this answers your query. Let me know if questions remain.
      Cheers, Gary
