BUILDING VIDEO-series of Aero20 trimaran (click on pictures)
WHICH BOAT SHOULD I BUILD?
The small boats are an easy start: the Mini-X, Pure20 trimaran or the Wallypower print fast
and are prepared for commonly available rig-and RC components.
The larger Yachts are easy builds as well but they require more time, material and some
experience in rig/sail making.
WHAT IS IN A STL-FILE PACKAGES?
- STL-files for hull, cabin, appendages/foils, rig fittings
- Parts-list with printing instructions
- INSTRUCTIONS in English including bill of material
- Sail- and rig-plan
- Three sided design view
- Some yachts: STL for negative mold for composite hull
WHAT ELSE DO I NEED?
3D printer with min. 200mm build plate, recommendation is
with encapsulation and print bed >250mm in xyz
4 channel transmitter system, rudder servo and sail winch
Rig & sails, carbon tubes, sail cloth or ready made sails
For monohulls: keel fin and weight, e.g. from a DF95
Steel rods, threaded inserts, hooks, nuts and bolts
(The exact bill of material is in each yachts's INSTRUCTIONS)
ANY SPECIAL EQUIPMENT & SKILLS REQUIRED?
Nope ;-)
WHAT'S THE TOTAL COST?
It's a big range depending on boat size and existing RC equipment:
80-100€ for a Mini-X with existing RC up to >2.000€ for a carbon MOD40 incl. RC
An IMOCA yacht costs RTS (ready to sail / turnkey) approx 1.000-1.500€ incl. all RC
Once you have rigs and RC stuff, the next boat is 200-300€ only
