Hi Martin

Finally I finished the famous "Dorade" yacht, designed by Olin Stephens in 1931 from the AMATI kit.
There had to be done some adaptions to make it work as a RC-model.
And, as you can see on the video... it worked out.
Three options of sail sizes are making it possible to sail it under different wind conditions.
