Hello MusFuzZ. Actually we have found that concepts that work at full size (50foot foilers for example) do not scale down at all well to our rc size boats. Sail area/weight ratios are very different, our hulls have proportionately more buoyancy and our foils bear no relation to those on full size boats.
Will there be plans available to purchase or is someone going to put together a kit to build a mini40 .This would attract a lot of attention for people who love speed!
Hello Fred - We build kits in Australia of the Mini40. All the construction work is done and the cases for the foils are fitted and the adjustable rudder components are fitted. The buyer just needs to fit it out and supply the rigs. The boat is here: ua-cam.com/video/j-zgZDfDlMU/v-deo.html my email is iholtkss@gmail.com
Great to meet you Ian and admire your skills sailing Mike's 2Metre at Gosport. Thanks for your help setting up the Shinobi Tri.
+Ray Hewitt Is that your Shinobi in the video Ray?
+Mike Cooke - Hi Mike - yes it's Ray's Shinobi, still in undercoat and in need of a smaller rig
That is really cool! This would be super useful for prototyping.

These trifoils are like mustangs fresh out of the corral!
Wow! That thing is nearly as big as my real trimaran!
Thats exciting ! 😎
houa, impressionnant !!!!

Amazing
Belle videos
merci
Looks very unstable and even more difficult to control.
superbe
Technically interesting but no relaxing sailing.
Hello wajacare, It is not intended to be relaxing, we are trying to get maximum excitement from rc sailing with these boats
@@ianathertonholt7509 You are right. Enjoy.
