The Mini-X (-99 ) is the little 1:17 scale sister of the 1:10 scale one-meter X-99 3D sailboat which is also available for 3D printing. The boat is derived from the real X-99 sailing yacht by the famous Danish Yard X-Yachts. The original is an active racing class in Europe with >600 units built.
You can either build the model boat for display or for functional RC sailing. The Mini-X is suitable as first printable sailboat. For functional sailing you can use the keel/bulb, rudder and complete rig of the commercial sailboat "Micro Magic" (formerly from Graupner, now from Hacker-Model).
Length 600 mm Height 825 mm incl. mast
Width 180 mm Weight 0,8 kg incl. keel and battery (RTS)
=> STL PRINTING FILE PACKAGE incl. an assembly plan and a rig plan: 30€ (please contact us for more info)
Like a real X-99, and like her bigger modelboat-sister, the Mini-X likes upwind sailing.
Rig and appendages can be taken over from the proven Micro Magic without any adjustments necessary.
The Mini-X is the ideal beginner boat.
