As a Newbie to "Model Yachting" I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right Direction.
About 4 years ago I bought a "Ripmax - Sea Lite" Yacht. Happy with my purchase, off I went to my local model boating lake for an afternoon of sailing. What a mistake, it wasn't long before I found that the yacht I thought would give me hours of pleasure was unable to sail properly and was a complete waste of time and money. It has now spent 4 years in my loft un-loved. After research on the internet I could see that there where many other people who had the same problem.
Recently the urge to get involved in Model Yachting has struck again. After further Investigation on the internet I found that a better option would have been to have purchased a "Micro Magic" instead, this I now intent to do. I would be grateful if someone could answer a few questions.
Do I need to purchase the Jib Trim servo, what are its benefits? I believe this is a no no for competition.
After gluing the deck to the hull is there enough room to service/replace the battery, the Sail and Rudder Servos, and including the Jib Trim Servo and receiver etc???? Viewing the drawing it would appear that you might have trouble replacing the Jib Trim Servo as there doesn’t seem to be much room to get your hand(s) in.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Does anyone have a copy of the manual for the "Hitec Zebra 3 Channel RC System Including 2 Servos 40Mhz" that I may have to for research?
Is there any member in the North West, i.e. the Wirral / Merseyside who would be willing to guide me through the building process.
Best Regards
