Wow thanks! Yeah, I worked pretty hard on it and I still have a lot to improve. I felt really self-conscious about this one for some reason, I just could see all the flaws and wasn't sure if it was good enough. I guess it can only get better from here!
Hope you enjoyed! This project was pretty fun and I'll be reattempting it with a better flettner rotor soon! Edit: 700 views!! Thanks for watching everyone, new video out soon I hope!
Thanks! I really appreciate the comment! These projects are really fun and I've really been enjoying sharing them on CZcams. Although it has been pretty hard to gain any traction, Lol. Thanks for watching!
Yeah! This type of sail boat is the most efficient when at 90 degrees from the wind direction and thrust gradually decreases the closer you get to parallel (even though, paradoxically, the sail creates the same amount of thrust. It’s just not in a direction that can actively push the vehicle forward). Pretty interesting! Sailing is an interesting craft which I haven’t quite mastered. I really need to make the sail thicker to create more thrust. Right now the rotor just barely has enough speed to move the boat.
This is your best vid yet. Good job :)

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Very cool idea
Thanks!
Awesome!

@@ezrarichardson279 Yeah, I can relate 😂Good luck
Cool, good job!
Thanks!
I’m proud to be your 69th subscriber.
That's sick! Thanks for the sub! Hopefully I'll be able to post again soon once my big projects done!
When the wind direction was longitudinal to the channel and the model was transversal, evidenced by the waves, the model reached a higher speed.

Hello, can you tell me where the various parts were acquired? Thanks
Hello! I think most, if not all the parts were acquired from bangood.com. Hope that’s helpful! Thanks for the interest!
Thanks
@@terrificm6569 Yup! No problem!
