Hi Bob,

Are there separate lines from the servo to the jib & mainsail ?

Is there no clue in the build article ??

Regards Ray

Hi Bob,

The easiest way would be a running line on the deck with some elastic to keep tension and both the main & jib are connected to it, this is the way the RG65 Dragon Force & Flite commercial boats are sheets and works well 😀

Regards Ray

That would be normal but the person "John Goodyear" designed it so the sheets were below deck.

Make your own contribution to the Website

We welcome well written contributions from Website members on almost any aspect of Model Boating with a particular emphasis on practical hints, tips, experience and builds.

In order to maintain a consistent standard and format, all suggestions should first be sent to me by Personal Message for approval in principle. Only a very limited amount of time is available for editing contributions into a suitable format for placing on the website so it is important that the material is well presented, lucid and free from obvious spelling errors. I think it goes without saying that contributions should be illustrated by appropriate photos. I shall be happy to give advice on this.

The Member Contribution area offers space for short informative mini articles which would not normally find a place in Model Boats magazine. It is an opportunity for Website Members to freely share their  expertise and experience but I am afraid that virtue is its own reward as there is no budget to offer more material recompense!

I look forward to receiving your suggestions.

Colin Bishop - Website Editor
