RC Sailboat Rigging and Fittings
Hi! All
I am in my 1st craft build and am trying to custom build this one. I need help, determining fittings and rigging for mast/boom connections and with the use of two separate spool wench servos, one rudder servo and one motor I need to find out what is recommended by you Pros.
Respects

RE: RC Sailboat Rigging and Fittings
How big? What type of boat? Is it being done for looks or action?
Several servo manufacturers make sailwinch servos, although a wench would be welcome.
There are fittings manufacturers like sailsetc, with lots of information on their sites.

RE: RC Sailboat Rigging and Fittings
The hull is 40", with a 8 1/2" beam. I am making this a mock up and plan on sailing her for pleasure. If all goes well I will have another hull ready for the real deal, this week.
