RC Sailboats

An overview of radio controlled sail boats and a brief explanation of scale model sailboats, semi scale rc sport, and rc racing sailing yachts. kits, rtr and scratch built..

RC sailboats can be divided up in three main categories:

  • RC Sport Sail
  • RC Sailing Yachts (for racing)
  • RC Scale Sail

RC sport sail

Most kits and RTR (ready-to-run) model RC sail boats are best categorized as RC sport scale. This category is a happy medium between full-blown scale models and RC racing yachts.

Some have become so widely distributed that new racing classes has been formed around them. Good examples are Graupner's Micro Magic and Kyosho's Fairwind.

They are usually semi-scale of modern cruising yachts or made to resemble America’s cup sailboats.

The lower cost models come with ABS hulls, whereas the higher end models come with more durable fiberglass hulls. Drop keels, aluminum masts and Dacron sails are most common.

RC racing yachts

If you want to get into RC yacht racing there are a number of classes to choose from. Each country has a governing body ( American Model Yachting Association (AMYA) in the USA, Model Yachting Association in the UK) under the International Model Yacht Racing Union.

As with full size regattas, RC model yacht racing face some of the same issues. Entry rules for competitions typically follow depending on if the class is Open or Closed Design.

Open or Construction Class

What these classes have in common is that the boats are not identical - instead the rules are made up like a mathematical formula. The good thing that brings is that the challenge is three-fold – design, construction and sailing the course.

The disadvantage is in that the rules for some classes can be complicated. Some classes have gained in popularity precisely because the rules fro previously established classes were so hard to understand.

Examples of some popular open design model yacht classes:

  • 6 Metre - M6R
  • 10 rater – R10r
  • 36" (36-inch)

Closed Design or One-design Class

All entries have to be the same design. Some are kits from a single manufacturer others are open to home built model boats.

  • Soling 1 Meter
  • Micro Magic - Graupner
  • Fairwind - Kyosho

RC scale sail

We're talking about scale model sail boats that actually use its sails as the main means of propulsion. RC scale sail is called minisail in continental Europe. The vast majority of sailing scale model boats is scratch built. There are a few kits - Billings Collin Archer RS-1 comes to mind.

The prevailing problem with scaling a sailboat is that stability doesn’t scale linearly with size. The result is that model boats will always be significantly less stable than the boat or ship it was modeled after. Left as is, it may have detrimental effects on the model’s sea keeping abilities. There are ways to minimize the effect.

A smallish boat built to a large scale is more stable than a large ship to a small scale. For instance, say you can only transport a model 1m long. Building a model of an 8m cruising yacht at 1:8 scale will be more stable than a model of the USS Constitution at 1:48 scale. This is true even if they end up weighing the same and being the same length. I bet the yacht will be a much better sailer too.

Bigger is always better too, when it comes to scale RC sailboats. Try and build the biggest model you can get away with. A larger model will be more forgiving on construction techniques, materials and the weight of components. The finished model will also be faster, a better sailer and handle stronger winds than if it was built smaller.

Making considerable effort to build light is always a god habit. The higher up a part or component is located, the more important this becomes. For instance, rigging components need to be light weight.

Other factors are beam and draft (width and depth for landlubbers). A wider and deeper hull will naturally be more stable than thin and shallow.

There are two tricks to increase the stability of model boats artificially:

Add a drop keel

By adding a drop keel you can bring the center of gravity down while adding profile area. The greater under-water profile helps against drifting sideways. All sailboats drift downwind some, because the surface water moves with the wind. The lower boundary-layers of a body of water are influenced less by the wind than layers closer to the surface. Therefore, the deeper any extension of the hull is, the less drift.

Typically a boat with a drop-keel also needs a larger rudder. A good guideline is to make the rudder area 10-12% of the total submerged hull profile.

Extent the hull below the waterline

Some builders rather build the boat hull slightly out of scale than add a drop keel. The most bang-for-the-buck is to deepen the hull. Same rule apply about the rudder (rudder area = 10-12% of total submerged profile). You could technically make the hull wider, but the effect is not as great.

Any change in the submerged hull profile need to maintain the same geometric center to balance the center of effort on the sails. Naturally, if you know what you are doing, the sail and rig can be modified also.

A Final Word on Scale RC Sailboats

Generally stay away from lateen rigs, multi-hull, centerboard designs and square riggers, at least until you have become an experienced RC sailboats captain and/or builder.

In addition, you can purchase pre-built 1m RC sailboats at hobby and toy stores or online retailers such as Amazon and Tower Hobbies.

How do remote control sailboats work?

Remote control sailboats work by using a radio transmitter and receiver. The radio transmitter allows the user to control the boat’s movements from a distance. On the boat, the radio receiver is connected to two battery-powered electric motors or servos which change the position of the boat’s sails or rudder. To control the boat’s speed or direction, the user sends signals to the transmitter which are then interpreted by the receiver and translated into instructions to change the position of the servos.

Benefits of Owning a 1m RC Sailboat

There are numerous benefits to owning and sailing a 1m RC sailboat . Here are some of the most notable:

  • Cost-effective : 1m RC sailboats are relatively inexpensive to maintain. Other than occasional battery replacements and minor repairs, they require little upkeep.
  • Relaxing hobby : Sailing a 1m RC sailboat can be a stress-relieving form of recreation, allowing you to unwind and clear your mind.
  • Sense of accomplishment : Building, customizing, and sailing your own boat can provide a sense of pride and accomplishment .
  • Rich history : The history of model boats dates back thousands of years to ancient Egypt, with model boats sometimes serving a ceremonial or religious purpose.
  • Community : Clubs and organizations exist worldwide for remote-controlled boating enthusiasts to connect and share their passion.
  • Customizable : 1m RC sailboats can be customized with different sails, rigging, and decorations according to personal preferences.

If you’re interested in trying out this fun and fulfilling hobby, consider joining a local remote-controlled boating club or accessing online resources such as modellingtips.com, which offers comprehensive guides on building and maintaining 1m RC sailboats .

What are the benefits of owning a sailboat?

Owning a sailboat has several benefits. One of them is its ability to take you anywhere, making it the ideal craft for traveling long distances. Not to mention, you can save a lot of money on airfare and hotel accommodations. Another benefit is that a sailboat’s engine is much smaller and is used far less compared to a powerboat, which keeps maintenance and fuel costs down.

Different Types of 1m RC Sailboats

There are a variety of different types of 1m RC sailboats available, each with unique features and purposes. Some of the most common types of 1m RC sailboats include:

  • Racing boats: Designed for speed and maneuverability, racing boats typically have a sleek, aerodynamic design and a narrow keel. They are built to compete on flat, calm waters and can reach speeds of up to 20 mph.
  • Cruising boats: These boats are designed for leisurely sailing and generally have a wider hull and deeper keel than racing boats. They are built for stability and can handle a wider range of water conditions.
  • Scale boats: These boats are built to replicate full-size boats and can be highly detailed and intricate. They come in a variety of styles, including historic boats, modern sailboats, and luxury yachts.
  • Classic boats: These 1m RC sailboats are designed to resemble boats from the 1930s or earlier. They are typically made of wood and have a timeless, elegant design.
  • Solar-powered boats: A newer option in the RC sailboat world, these boats utilize solar panels to power the electric motor. They are environmentally friendly and quiet, making them a popular choice among eco-conscious hobbyists.

Depending on your interests and preferences, one type of 1m RC sailboat may be more suitable than others. To learn more about the different types of 1m RC sailboats , check out websites like sailboats.co.uk or myhobbyhouse.com , which offer a wide selection of boats and resources for remote-controlled boating enthusiasts.

What are those racing boats called?

Racing boats, also known as shells, are long and narrow watercrafts that are semi-circular in cross-section to minimize drag. To increase the effectiveness of the rudder and prevent roll and yaw, they have a fin towards the rear. You can find more information about racing shells on Wikipedia.

Building Your Own 1m RC Sailboat

Building your own 1m RC sailboat is a great way to dive deeper into the hobby and gain a deeper appreciation for the craftsmanship and engineering that goes into building and operating these boats. Here are some tips to help you build your own 1m RC sailboat :

  • Decide on the type of boat you want to build and select a set of plans or a kit that meets your needs. There are plenty of resources available online, including websites like modelerscentral.com and modelshipworld.com, that offer kits and supplies for model boat building.
  • Choose the materials for your boat. Different boats may require different materials, but common options include wood , plastic , fiberglass , and aluminum . Make sure to select materials that are strong, lightweight, and easy to work with.
  • Use appropriate tools to build the boat. Depending on the materials you are using, you may need tools like saws , sandpaper , drills , and glue . Make sure your workspace is clean and well-lit, and take your time to ensure precision and accuracy in your work.
  • Assemble the parts of the boat. This may involve fitting together pieces of the hull, crafting masts and sails, and attaching rigging lines. Follow the instructions carefully and be patient, as some of these steps may require a steady hand and attention to detail.
  • Add the finishing touches. Once the boat is assembled, you may want to paint or decorate it, add extra details like flags or deck furniture , and test it in the water to ensure that it sails smoothly and safely.

If you’re new to model boat building or need some guidance on building a 1m RC sailboat , there are a number of resources available online to help you get started. Websites like modelboatmayhem.co.uk and modelboatbuilder.co.uk offer forums and communities for enthusiasts to share tips and advice, and YouTube channels like How To Build A Model Ship offer step-by-step tutorials and inspiration for your next project.

What do you need to build a model ship?

To build a model ship, you will need a few essential tools such as a compass, ruler, calculator, hand-drill, fretsaw with table and clamp, sanding materials, needle files, and wood rasps. These tools are necessary for measuring, cutting, drilling, shaping and sanding the various parts of the ship. If you’re looking for these tools, you can check out websites like Modelers Central and Model Expo, which offer a wide variety of model ship-building tools and kits.

Best Locations for Sailing Your 1m RC Sailboat

Once you’ve built your 1m RC sailboat , you’ll want to find a great location to put it into the water and enjoy it to the fullest. Here are some of the best locations for sailing your 1m RC sailboat :

  • Ponds : Small ponds can be a great option for sailing your 1m RC sailboat , as they often offer calm waters and plenty of room to sail without causing any disturbance.
  • Lakes : Larger, deeper lakes can provide plenty of opportunities for long-distance sailing and exploration. Just make sure to avoid crowded areas where other boaters or swimmers may be present.
  • Rivers : Slow-moving rivers can be ideal for sailing, as they generally offer calm waters and plenty of room to maneuver. Be sure to be aware of any currents or obstacles in the water.
  • Oceans : If you’re ready for a bigger challenge, consider taking your 1m RC sailboat out into the ocean. Just make sure to choose a calm day with good weather conditions, and be aware of any tides or currents that may affect your boat’s navigation.

It’s important to remember that wherever you choose to sail your 1m RC sailboat , you should always follow local boating laws and regulations to ensure safety and good stewardship of the waterways. You may also want to consider joining a local boating club or community, where you can share your passion for model boats with other enthusiasts and enjoy organized sailing events.

Some great resources for finding local sailing clubs and events include websites like rcgroups.com and offshoreradiosail.org.

Sailor Cole Brauer makes history as the first American woman to race solo around the world

Aboard her 40-foot racing boat First Light ,  29-year-old Cole Brauer just became the first American woman to race nonstop around the world by herself.

The New York native pulled into A Coruña, Spain, on Thursday after a treacherous 30,000-mile journey that took 130 days.

She thanked a cheering crowd of family and fans who had been waiting for her on shore.

“This is really cool and so overwhelming in every sense of the word,” she exclaimed, before drinking Champagne from her trophy.

The 5-foot-2 powerhouse placed second out of 16 avid sailors who competed in the Global Solo Challenge, a circumnavigation race that started in A Coruña with participants from 10 countries. The first-of-its-kind event   allowed a wide range of boats to set off in successive departures based on performance characteristics. Brauer started on Oct. 29, sailing down the west coast of Africa, over to Australia, and around the tip of South America before returning to Spain.

Brauer is the only woman and the youngest competitor in the event — something she hopes young girls in and out of the sport can draw inspiration from.

“It would be amazing if there was just one girl that saw me and said, ‘Oh, I can do that too,’” Brauer said of her history-making sail.

It’s a grueling race, and more than half of the competitors have dropped out so far. One struck something that caused his boat to flood, and another sailor had to abandon his ship after a mast broke as a severe storm was moving in.

The four-month journey is fraught with danger, including navigating the three “Great Capes” of Africa, Australia and South America. Rounding South America’s Cape Horn, where the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans meet, is often likened to climbing Mount Everest because of its perfect storm of hazards — a sharp rise in the ocean floor and whipping westerly winds push up massive waves. Combined with the frigid waters and stray icebergs, the area is known as a graveyard for ships, according to NASA. Brauer  said  she was “so unbelievably stoked” when she sailed past Cape Horn in January.

Marco Nannini, organizer of the Global Solo Challenge, said the comparison to scaling Mount Everest doesn’t capture the difficulty of the race. Sailing solo means not just being a skipper but a project manager — steering the boat, fixing equipment, understanding the weather and maintaining one’s physical health.

Nannini cited the relatively minuscule number of people who have sailed around the world solo — 186, according to the International Association of Cape Horners — as evidence of the challenges that competitors face. More than 6,000 people have climbed Mount Everest, according to  High Adventure Expeditions .

Brauer stared down 30-foot waves that had enough force to throw her across the boat. In a scare caught on camera, she badly injured her rib   near the halfway point of the event. At another point, her team in the U.S. directed Brauer to insert an IV into her own arm due to dehydration from vomiting and diarrhea.

She was able to stay in constant communication with members of her team, most of whom are based in New England,   and keep herself entertained with Netflix and video calls with family through Starlink satellites.   That’s also how Brauer was able to use Zoom to connect with NBC News for an interview, while she was sailing about 1,000 miles west of the Canary Islands.

While Brauer was technically alone on First Light, she had the company of 450,000 followers on Instagram, where she frequently got candid about life on an unforgiving sea while reflecting on her journey.

“It all makes it worth it when you come out here, you sit on the bow, and you see how beautiful it is,” she said in an Instagram video, before panning the camera to reveal the radiant sunrise.

Brauer grew up on Long Island but didn’t learn to sail until she went to college in Hawaii. She traded in her goal of becoming a doctor for life on the water. But she quickly learned making a career as a sailor is extremely difficult, with professional racers often hesitant to welcome a 100-pound young woman on their team.

Even when she was trying to find sponsors for the Global Solo Challenge, she said a lot of people “wouldn’t touch her with a 10-foot pole” because they saw her as a “liability.”

Brauer’s message to the skeptics and naysayers? “Watch me.”

“I push so much harder when someone’s like, ‘No, you can’t do that,’ or ‘You’re too small,’” Brauer explained.

“The biggest asset is your mental strength, not the physical one,” Nannini said. “Cole is showing everyone that.”

Brauer hopes to continue competing professionally and is already eyeing another around-the-world competition, but not before she gets her hands on a croissant and cappuccino.

“My mouth is watering just thinking about that.”

Bancroft DragonFlite 95 V2 950mm (37.4") Racing Sailboat from Joysway- RTR - BNC1049-001

There are few R/C modeling activities more peaceful than sailing a yacht on summer’s evening enjoying a gentle, constant breeze on your preferred pond. Likewise, few activities can be more exciting than racing like a captain in the America’s Cup, using a model yacht against similarly-equipped competitors that places your sailing skills to the test!

Bancroft is pleased to offer the world-renown DragonFlite 95 V2 sailing yacht, a model perfectly suited to either activity. Manufactured by Joysway Model Co., it’s now available for sale through Motion RC!

Available in both PNP (no transmitter or receiver) and RTR (includes transmitter and receiver) versions, these models arrive highly prefabricated and ready for final assembly and rigging.

V2 improvements include a new, improved sail winch servo and a revised boat stand that allows both vertical or horizontal securement of the model for convenient storage, transport, and maintenance.

With active chapters in eight countries, DF racing has become an economical and enjoyable portal into the sport of RC sailing. Visit www.dfracing.world for information, rules, competition chapters, and events.

Check out Moscow’s NEW electric river trams (PHOTOS)

rc sailboat racing kits

Water transportation has become another sector for the eco-friendly improvements the Moscow government is implementing. And it means business. On July 15, 2021, on the dock of Moscow’s ‘Zaryadye’ park, mayor Sergey Sobyanin was shown the first model of the upcoming river cruise boat.

rc sailboat racing kits

The model of the electrical boat with panoramic windows measures 22 meters in length. The river tram - as Muscovites call them - has a passenger capacity of 42, including two disabled seats. The trams will also get cutting edge info panels, USB docking stations, Wi-Fi, spaces for scooters and bicycles, as well as chairs and desks for working on the go. The boats will be available all year round, according to ‘Mosgortrans’, the regional transport agency. 

rc sailboat racing kits

Passengers will be able to pay with their ‘Troika’ public transport card, credit cards or bank cards. 

The main clientele targeted are people living in Moscow’s river districts - the upcoming trams will shorten their travel time in comparison to buses and other transportation by five times, Mosgortrans stated. 

rc sailboat racing kits

As the river trams are being rolled out, Moscow docks will also see mini-stations, some of which will also be outfitted with charging docks for speed-charging the boats.  

rc sailboat racing kits

Moscow is set to announce the start of the tender for construction and supply in September 2021. The first trams are scheduled to launch in June 2022 on two routes - from Kievskaya Station, through Moscow City, into Fili; and from ZIL to Pechatniki. 

rc sailboat racing kits

“Two full-scale routes will be created in 2022-2023, serviced by 20 river trams and a number of river stations. We’ll continue to develop them further if they prove to be popular with the citizens,” the Moscow mayor said .

T50 Carbon Fiber Racing Sloop

The T50 Carbon Fiber Racing Sloop combines the latest in lightweight strength of carbon fiber with a classic and timeless design that is as fast as it is beautiful. At 50 inches long and over six feet tall, the T50 Carbon Fiber Racing Sloop is the ultimate in RC sailing.

The black carbon fiber hull is complemented by a beautiful okume mahogany deck that stretches unbroken from the bow to the stern and adds elegance and sophistication to make the T50 Carbon Fiber Racing Sloop an outstanding boat both in the water and on display.

Unlike the T50 Racing Sloop , which has a cedar-strip planked deck, the T50 Carbon Fiber Racing Sloop arrives with a preformed Carbon Fiber hull, which in turn expedites the building process. If the building process– particularly the project of planking a hull, which is actually quite easy and fun– appeals to you, the T50 Racing Sloop may be a better boat for you. While the assembly of the T50 Carbon Fiber Racing Sloop is more involved than the process for the T27 and T37 Racing Sloops , the T50 Carbon Fiber Racing Sloop kit’s detailed instructions guide the builder through the entire process smoothly and easily. No detail is left out!

The kit includes:

  • Pre-formed lightweight and strong Carbon Fiber hull
  • Okume mahogany three-ply deck and mahogany transom
  • High-quality brass and stainless steel hardware
  • Stainless steel rigging wire and Spectra rigging lines
  • Carbon fiber mast and booms
  • 3/4 oz. nylon spinnaker cloth pre-sewn sails: includes three jibs for light, medium, and heavy air conditions (the kit may also be purchased with a set of mylar sails as another option)
  • Marine-grade epoxy, along with epoxy brushes, gloves, and syringes
  • Full radio control gear, including the transmitter, receiver, and battery box
  • Sail and rudder servos, including the strong 785 drum winch servo
  • Detailed instructions to guide you through the entire building process

T50 Carbon Fiber Kit – with 3/4 oz. nylon spinnaker-cloth sails: $895.00

T50 carbon fiber kit – with paneled mylar sails: $1,159.00, finished t50 carbon fiber , ready to sail. .

Please call 1-360-966-4357 for the availability of a finished T50 Carbon Fiber.

Accessories for the T50 Carbon Fiber

T50 lakeside/floor stand: $56.00, t50 wall-hanging stand: $45.00.
