Hi guys, as already indicated in my last work on the J-Class Rainbow, I had to learn how to use the Fusion 360 software well and therefore what better way to learn by drawing something of great interest to me (sailing boats).Came out a sailing Pilot that I really like in its lines and I was missing in my living room as a model.I designed it to be able to print it in 3D, divided into 3 sections for medium-sized printers.Obviously, being an old model maker, I wanted the new technology to marry with the old and therefore the model will have the deck covered with wooden slats and the mast will also be made of wood, and can be customized as desired by whoever wants to build it.The maneuvers are moved by a closed circuit for the mainsheet and jib sheet, in the printout of the model the pulleys for the circuit and the seats for the servocontrols have been prepared which will only have to be fixed, the propeller shaft has a section of 10 mm of those that are available on the market.The servo is economic, makes 4 complete turns and its pulley was not good, I redesigned it a little bigger.The motor seat is also designed for motors that you can recover from old hairdryers or buy, the motor is only for service and not cooled, from tests done it heats little.Below you will find the STL files for those wishing to try their hand at construction.For print the 3 sectionof the hull I recommend PLA LW which is much lighter and you can print the hull with 100% infill.My print is in normal Pla but pay attention to the thickness of the hull, it must not have a filling greater than 25% and this could cause water infiltrations. I resolved this with a coat of external epoxy resin, the weight of the 3 sections must be less than 1 kg ( after removing the printing supports.Obviously being "in progress" there will probably be some additions if the construction requires it.I uploaded a YouTube link where you can see photos of the construction done so far, which will be updated as the work progresses.STL files are corrected from errors found on the first model to simplify the work.Check every now and then for changes or additions to files.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a61hky0HmbIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txcbrnF0e0o
