Виктор Лукин Действительно, даже только глядя со стороны на этот "полёт", дух захватывает. Но настораживает то, что эта птичка бескилевая, а это значит, предел устойчивости не шибко хороший. Следовательно, управлять надо умело и осторожно. Думаю, такая сверх критичная конструкция, не простит ошибок при управлении. ИМХО конечно :-)))

[@ВикторЛукин-б5ц]

@@DoctorBetterverywell хороший ответ...но я более чем уверен, что у этой птички есть электронные мозги, которые учитывают поперечные и продольные колебания корпуса вкупе со скоростью , угол скольжения, сила давления, так и градус направления воздушного потока. Почему я так думаю - движение по палубе члены команды, сам корпус и парусная оснастка выглядят во всех проекциях как литые, очень маленькие углы разворота почти без крена всей конструкции в целом - режет воду и окружающее пространство как масло....ну или экипаж великолепно подготовлен, а скорее и то и другое в совокупности. Ну и в плане отсутствия киля - а зачем козе боян, если функции киля , тобишь поперечной устойчивости отлично заменили наличием подводных крыльев с изменяемым углом наклона и плавающей точкой опоры с водной поверхностью. Катамараны и тримараны не имеют в своей конструкции киль. Я не моряк и конструктор корабельный...но могу анализировать и сопоставить.

The aircraft comment is accurate. These are air/water foil craft. They are fast, fragile, uncomfortable and very expensive. They have little to do with seamanship beyond flat water bays. At this date in technology we have known of foils for more than a half century. These "Cup" or "Class" competitions would do well to capture both methods of propelling water hulls. We cannot, should not forsake the real skills of sailing as what is required to manage a displacement hull through crushing water and wind. Foil racing is not sailing. Let's just call it "Foiling" and place it into a separate class.

[@7cle]

To be clear, could one tell me how this thing is flown ? Is there one crew in charge of conventional sailing and one in charge of the flying, a skipper and a pilot ? Are there computer controlled feedback loops and actuators in charge of stability or is it inherently stable ? That would seem an enormous achievement, I’d be amazed if there was no electronics inside. You’d need them for development, sure. But but, I’m shocked. Well done.
