Sailing speeding catamaran Opti 3

1,522 SlowSailor  4.3 years ago

Improver version of her younger sister. She can get to a steady 100-105mph with 20mph half-wind. I tried to make het without cheating like mods or giroscopes. But she has some modded pistons.

CONTROLS
- Joystich (Roll and Pitch): stearing (Roll and trim) and main sail (Pitch).
- VTOL: change position of the dead weight to the left and right.
- Throttle: raise swords.

HOW TO SAIL FAST
- Use 20 mph wind
- Raise the swords when you already have some speed for less drag.
- Move the position of the dead waigt to the high side (side of wind direction) of the vessel.
- Use the joystick to hold her steady.
I can get her to a steady 107 mph, wanna have a challenge?
