Thank you Nev for sharing the results of another building project. I hope you found a few new problems to solve during the process. There always seems to be a few challenges that keep it interesting. Best regards, Tim.
Hi Tim, thanks for your interest. They aren’t actually new projects, but it isn’t easy to get the right conditions to sail them both at the same time, so they haven’t been video’d for a while. The problems of squeezing everything in at that scale were uppermost at the time of building. When it comes to sailing, they’ll only stand so much in terms of wave height. The video day actually could have done with a bit more wind, but never mind, it was nice to sail them again.
I've never watched radio controlled boats, either live or video. I was drawn in by the romance of the P liners and the Cape Horn transits. It's amazing how detailed your work is. I assume its screw driven but with the sails maneuverable some wind effect adds to the motion. I enjoyed the video and give you a cheer
@@chiron14pl No need for it to be screw driven. I raced RC sailboats years ago, people were often surprised when the boats are lifted out of the water and they see there is no propeller.
@@fantabuloussnuffaluffagus Wow
@@chiron14pl Hi, thank you for your comments. There are no propellers, the boats are driven by the wind alone. The sails are manoeuvred in the same way as those on the real ships, by bracing round the yards, to use the wind to best effect. They are great fun to sail.
thats great man!!! what sailwinches you use? i hope mine is ready to leave the drydock by upcoming spring.
Hi, thank you. I don’t use winches, but sail arm servos, with centrally pivoted arms. If you look at my videos of the build of “Parma”, you’ll get the idea. Regards, Nev.
I was astounded by the "dismasting" segment - (although I had thought that was "boxhauling") - something I'd sort of understood in concept but not quite followed. It looked beautiful on the video
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
You are more than welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed the videos. Good luck if you ever give building a try!
Thank you for this interesting lesson of the different maneuvers the ship had to handle . Always whondered how they were (a)tackling.
Thank you for this informativ video.I have always wondered how I whould solve this maneuvering as I for a long time have had an idea of building a RC ship even before I ran into these videos and this special hobby.
Hev, Queen Margaret is really wonder to watch. You captured her proportions beautiful. Her sheer shows nicely with her white hull and dark rails. And her sail plan is is a thing of beauty. You have her wonderfully setup and trimmed. You found a beautiful ship to model and sail, Thank you.
Thank you. Not for nothing was she called, “the beautiful Queen Margaret”. The model is a joy to sail, as must have been the real ship, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. There are plenty more on my channel, NW.

Dear Neville, really wonderful seeing her sailing. One question, have you used the Underhill plan to build her? I am searching quite a while for a good plan of the AR. The only thing I found so far are the books of Edward Bowness which contain a plan too, but not of that quality. Gerald
Hi Gerald, thank you for that. Yes, I did use the Underhill plans. They are available from Brown, Ferguson and Son, Glasgow. Www.skipper.co.uk
@@nevwadewindjammer perfect, thank you so much.
ein wenig mehr Ballast könnte nicht schaden
well done what is the string you are using for sail control
It is Fishermens’ “braid”, strong, thin and runs easily.
Great video. Really shows what it is like
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Holy cow! I thought the masts were turning ,but it's all the sails that pivot that's a lot of wires. I have a question: why don't we see more people make rc tall ships using kits? The conversion is not possible why? Your videos are very inspiring.
Hi. There are only two pairs of lines per mast, to operate the yards, so it’s not so complicated. As to why there aren’t any kits of sailing square-riggers, I suppose it’s because there aren’t enough people who are interested. There is a Revell kit of the “Alexander Von Humboldt”, but it doesn’t sail, only has a motor, which I think defeats the object.
@@nevwadewindjammer Thanks again!
Beautiful ship! Do you need a motor to help it sail up wind or it's good on it's own? I'm doing the research to build a tall ship. Don't know wich one yet. There are sooo many beautiful ship models.
Hi, thank you. There are no motors, only the sails. If you build a model, you must get the yards to brace round to within 30deg of the centreline of the hull, in order for the model to sail to windward. If you get it right, the model will sail to 65deg to the wind, no better. Good luck!
@@nevwadewindjammer Thank you very much.
Brilliant, now send her round the horn
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
Hi, thank you, I’m glad you liked the video. Each mast is controlled separately and I can remove the topmost sails for heavy weather sailing. Nev.
Hi, Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Each mast is controlled separately (swinging the yards round, bracing) and I can remove the topmost sails for heavy weather sailing. Nev.
Beautiful. Zero experience with RC ships/sailboats, are the separately segmented masts so they can be trimmed individually?
Wow not only informative, I didn't know they sold RC sailboats let alone square riggers. Thank U probably cost me a couple of grand getting my own.
Hi Chris, thank you for the comment. They do sell RC sailboats, but they are yachts or, at the most, schooners. If you want a square-rigger, I’m afraid you’ll have to build your own. If you look further in my channel, you’ll find a couple of “build videos”.
Beautiful! Congratulations!
Thank you.
Awesome hills, it's a shame I don't have anything like that where I live
Enjoy what you do have Liutauras, the sea, rivers, snow. Good luck.
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Fantastic
She'd need a hell of a broadside to take down that giant seagull!
Another great video! There was moment of repetitive tacks not making upwind progress...reminded me of vessels forced back from The Horn. Great show.
Thank you, never thought of that and it does make a difference!
Slow the speed to .25 and it will be more realistic.....fine model.
Amazing work, perfect music! 👍🏻
Hi. Thank you. “Parma” is the thirteenth square-rigger and Futaba is the RC system.
Beautiful work Nev. How many have you made now? Which RC system do you use?
Hi John. Brown, Son & Ferguson, in Glasgow, www.skipper.co.uk. They do a catalogue of ships’ plans, from which you can make your choice, NW.
Thanks Nev, Thanks for your posts and the link
Hi Nev, Im building the schooner Julia May - bread and butter construction from one of the old MAP plans. It would be great to have a go at proper plank and frame. I must say you made it look easy. I bet its not. So where did you get the plans for Parma please?
Wow.... just wow.... Call me QueeQueg!
Hi, I would love to have one of these three metres long, but the efforts involved in handling it to, and into, the water would be too much!
Hi, Brahms Piano Concerto No. 2
Excellent choice of music!
Your manoevering is fabulous. Have you ever considered building a larger model (say, 3 metres long) to get it react more calmly? I fancy this would look marvelous!
Thank you. You are very welcome!
Great demonstration! Thank you!
Thank you Jason
Wow. Awesome work Sir.
I love the on board camera.👍👍
You are welcome, NW.
Brilliant. Thank you
Hi Noel, thank you for that. The Underhill plans are available from Brown, Son & Ferguson, Glasgow. Good luck if you have a go, remember I will be happy to help if you need it.
An excellent series of videos Nev. I've just picked them up after reading your article in 'Model Boats' and have just subscribed to your channel. I had not thought about building a square rigger but you are starting to give me ideas. Will the plans be made available? All the best, Noel
Thank you Gasparo
What a beauty.
No, sorry, see my earlier comment.
Would you ever build an rc square rigger for a customer?
