DF65 - DragonForce - Sailbuilding Guide - A+ Sails

Learn how to build professional-quality A+ sails for the DragonForce 65 (DF65).

Whether you’re upgrading to the A+ rig or just getting into RC yacht sailmaking, this is (IMO) the most detailed DF65 sailbuilding guide available on YouTube. #DF65 #DragonForce65 #RCSailing #RCYacht #RCSailboat #Sailbuilding #ModelYacht CHAPTERS 0:00 Intro 1:28 Printing the plan 2:05 Flow Stripes 3:06 Numbering and lettering 4:36 Cutting reinforcement patches 5:18 Cutting the Mylar 6:56 Jib Luff 13:21 Installing reinforcement patches 14:05 Installing eyelets 14:31 Steel wire finish 15:16 Reinforcement patches Mainsail 15:38 Mainsail attachment points 15:55 Battens 17:08 Class emblem 17:34 Conclusion 19:23 To come LINKS Mylar (3mil): Coop Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). https://tinyurl.com/58fu743h Sail cloth: https://www.sailmakerssupply.com/product/insignia-cloth/sailcloth Rules: https://dfracing.world/df65-rules/ Drawing, Templates and Class logo: https://dfracing.world/df65-rules-documents-drawings-templates/ Big print (download): https://woodgears.ca/bigprint/ My Big Print PDF: https://tinyurl.com/2s6t62ma MUSIC Island Meet and Greet – Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com/) Mas Café – Casa Rosa (YT Library) With you – Everet Almond (YT Library)
