hi vazrules, i got my monsoon rc boat first maiden sailed 2 weekends ago. thank you so much for all your support, help and advices. you are so kind and generous. this video was a great help too. god bless and kind regards, singchooi.
Do they make square rigged RCs please? I built one once, no electrics, not knowing what I was doing. I needed a great ammount of steel bolts for balast and so filled plaster around them so they didnt shift, it sailed pretty good :D
@singchooi I am just a lubber (I love that 'Sea Talk', hehehe) I would guess to buy in accord with the weight of your ship. 1 lbs boat? Get 3 lb shot of the largest size to fit and permit equal distribution.
I'm a true sailboat owner and navigator and now I bought a Surmount and a Moonson rc saillboats. I need your help because I don't know what type of bateries I may use into the boat. Can I use a plastic box with 4 bateries type AA with 1,5 v ? Or I must use the same bateries that we use at the eletric rc planes?
when u turn the sail to the left the boats goin 2 go left right plz help i am new to sailboating had 1 for yrs but then got out of it really wanna get bac in2 but 4got how to sail it
I'm gonna get one of these at the end of the month. What servo did you use to change the rudder speed to .12 sec.? Also, what radio system does this come with? You really should do a review, it would be very helpful considering there is no other reviews of this on Youtube. 5/5

Hi, I have used 2S LiPo and a BEC [voltage regulator].
The sail winch servo is faster with 6V. 4x rechargeable battery with the plastic box is only 4,8V.
In my gas powered planes I'm using 2S A123 connected directly to the servos, but I didn't try this in the sailboat. [I sold the boat long time ago]
Best regards

Hi, sorry I've used a 9 channel Futaba transmitter.
But I think any kind at least 2 channel transmitter, with a receiver will be enough.
