Hi Jon. Just got my first boat ever (DF95). Followed your video. Worked really well. Thank you. Two things that I would tell newbees: 1. They give you extra line, so no need to worry about cutting everything to the millimeter. 2. Set the servo limits asap on the sails-in and out. I did not realize that and had to redo my final rigging after I adjusted my limits.

Thanks for the Sabot tips! -as a mom of 9894 in the B group, I'm always trying to learn! I'm so impressed how you video, coach and drive at the same time.

Just bought the DF95 (Sept 2024) and your video is very helpful. I haven't watched all 3 yet but I will. Something I noticed at 8:25 is adding the little plastic piece to the top keel bolt. The directions I have don't even show the part in that assembly - even though it's in the bag of parts as in your video. 😮 Without your video, I would have missed it.

I really like this video. I had my first rc-boat two weeks now and try to get it going. The main problem is that in light up wind it will not tack. It just stops and fall back. How do I fix that?
@gunnarbergvall65024 ай бұрын
Interesting, but the first 10 minutes had nothing to with light wind tuning.
@BuenoSailing4 ай бұрын
Yes. Was kinda wingin it. Interesting that the setup in the video seems to be better in a little more than light air. Ive been going better since i let booms out a couple mm and the teist more by 3-4 mm. Anyhoo, all fun.

it was west north west which is usually breeziest direction yet swirling over trees makes for large holes. West is the best on the pond because its just that touch bit steadier than any cross pond winds

Cheap cord shrinks and stretches,i use only Power Pro spectra hollow core as this is spliceable no knots,where it's too tight for room to splice a simple half hitch and a burn creates a mushroom head, the knot is clean and cannot pull out.

Another great video. I pull my sails/mast every time I sail, so I Corrosion X that mast bearing every time. I appreciate the measurements for the booms, leeches, and feet, and I’ll compare to my settings.

One question what is the Arrow you have drawn on the Deck up by your mast?
@BuenoSailing2 жыл бұрын
The arrow shows the direction to tighten the boom vang/kicker setting. It helps me make sure I don't turn the little dial the opposite way that I want to.

Why only make a large knot at the bosy vs tie a slip knot?
@BuenoSailing2 жыл бұрын
No need to have slip lnot because you never want that knot to come out or be undone. I make big knot and put tiny bit of superglue because i dont want lnot to pull thru hole which has happened to me a couple times
