Hallo everyone!
Here is two videos of the bow planes.I'm not happy with them as I don't like at all the way they work! Does anyone have a better idea or any suggestion that would work better?Please let me know!
Hi everybody
Added some more details on deck and sail. Also today it was the first encounter with the water just to get a rough idea of how she behaves and how big the ballast tank should be. Conclusions are...1) Stability problems which means that I'll have to keep the cg really low in the hull. 2) The ballast tank will be smaller than expected, and 3) It takes a lot of effort to pull her out of the water, I nearly broke my back today! Here is some photos!
My English ist not good enough to decribe my impression about Your project - when I say that it is great then this ist absolutely insufficient. One of the best documentations I´ve ever seen !
Do You the diving with piston-tank(s) ? What volume will You approximately need ?
Perhaps you can solve it as with the originals, enclosed follow a few pictures. Here to move only a course/pressing rod used around both rudders. The trick is the dead angle that a rudder puts back in each case.

Otto, thank you very much for your kind words! The volume I'm going to need it will be about 1lt. I'm not going to use piston tanks, just a single ballast tank with an additional trim tank right on the CG. I'm trying to keep things simple as my budget doesn't allow me for sophisticated equipment!
