Rapidus v2 - 3D printed self-sailing sailboat

Why not an Arduino, Raspberry pi, or even a Pixhawk. I am just starting out on a project like this and hope i do as well.

From our own experience, you will need more volume on the front of the sides hulls ;)

That is a lot of sail for that hull. Beautiful design though

Do you have STL files ?? I’d love to print one myself and do my own improvements 👍

It kinda reminds of Alchemist, of kersauson

Is it ML in heart of your project? Can you share GitHub link on this one?

Interested in the software and different type hulls. I have a 3d printer, wanted to try making a wasp sail version.

looking at various wing efforts, hats off to you guys. I must axe a question though... most of the efforts I see, including this one, have a definitely 2 piece articulating wing with a gap. I don't care whether the gap is 0.125" or 1", but doesn't any gap allow the pressure differentials to cancel each other? Look at gliders, look at airplanes, look at wind turbines, no one allows a gap there. Seems like major power loss to me.

Why have a complicated control system when a simple tailvane will do the same job?

Hello - like to find out more but the website given does not work.

The music does not match what we see. And not exactly rapid is it.

Where are the printed drawings

It isn't automatic, it's manual. Can you make a program to make it sail itself?

Did you carry on with this project??
