   This photo shows how the servos are fitted. The long armed servo controls the jib and with 2:1 ratio, there is just enough movement, so the jib can move from one side to another.
   
   The servo controlling the mainsail is top left and uses a 3:1 ratio on the sheet and this creates enough travel to allow the mainsail to move out while sailing downwind.
   
   The third servo controls the rudder. I use a FlySky FS-i6 transmitter.

   Hi Andy, I saw your video in Doug's message.
   I really like how it sails.
   It seems to me that it navigates the various gaits and is also able to tack and jibe very well (even with little wind).

   Thanks Doug, you solved the problem brilliantly and showed me the video. I assumed that he had copied the entire URL (including https:...).
   You are much more attentive, nothing escapes you.

   Hi Andy.
   You forgot to include the security prefix https:// in your link.
   I believe the site rejects any link without this as a safety feature for us.
   BTW any link embedded in your text will chop off and ignore any text entered after it☹️
   ALWAYS put any URL links at the end of your text.
   This should work-
   Very nice vid BTW. Very relaxing, she seems to handle very well, although I couldn't do it myself.
   Not a 'stick and string' man really😉
   Cheers, Doug😎

   Hi Alessandro - I tried the paste/return, but no change. There must be away of making the text/web address into a direct link. It does seem to work if you cut and paste, not ideal I appreciate.

   Hi Andy, I select the entire URL of the Youtube video and then paste it into the text of the message (at the end of the text).
   I think you did the same. Maybe after pasting you should give the "return" command.
   By doing this in the forum the text link becomes a link icon. Try paste and "return".
   Maybe I'm wrong but it doesn't cost anything anyway.

   Hi Alessandro
   Thanks
   Sorry the link doesn’t work, could someone please explain how to create a direct link from a post as I couldn’t work this out? I notice some contributors manage to embed a video into their post.

   Hi Andy, it's a really nice model.
   I really like seeing them sailing but I couldn't open the video on YouTube.
   Is the link correct?
