Dragonfly 25, Sport version
READ CONTROLS AND USAGE ADVICE FOR BEST EXPERIENCE!
"The Dragonfly 25 is a high-performance trailer-sailer, easy handling for camping and racing sailors looking for an exhilarating lightweight trimaran which retains comfortable accommodation for weekend cruising with family and friends. The Dragonfly 25 is available in two versions, a Touring version for family cruising and the more powerful and dynamic Sport version for racing in the fast lane. The boat is a multifunctional multihull and can easily be sailed and handled single-handed." (dragonfly.dk/dragonfly-25)
This replica was a horrible pain to build. I spent around 5-7 hours just fixing various mechanisms. The built features a complete interior design, very realistic sailing experience aswell as setting sails, folding beams, a motor with reverse gear, realistic leaning to the lee side and a working stove. The replica is also almost perfectly in scale of 1:1.
For a pleasant sailing experience, I highly recommend to READ THE CONTROLS!
Controls:
-Roll to steer
-AG8 + throttle for sailing
-AG1 + throttle to start the engine, pitch for forward/reverse driving
-VTOL to fold the beams
-Trim to alter the sail
-Landing Gear Button for the stove
Useful Advice:
-Don't put the trim up, when the beams are folded in, the folding is just for reducing the width in the harbour
-give the engine a little time, it isn't that strong
-driving without sails is very unstable, use the sails for actual journeys
Last, but not least: The first person to figure out, what the special feature is, will get 3 upvotes as a reward ^^
Congrats to TTHHSSSS for finding it!

@TheMoustacheMan thanks!
The level of detail on this (and all your other creations) is totally legendary definitely my favourite boat I have downloaded in a long time
@WahrscheinlichIch
ok, nja... ich hab durch meinen "Entzug" wieder jede Menge Ideen.. aber mal schauen wie lang es anhält..
@Devilsfish joah...
du hast selbst auch kaum noch bock zu bauen oder ^^ ?
😳😂
@Kimo at store.wahrscheinlichich.com xD
Wow, where can I buy one!
@WahrscheinlichIch no problem
@EternalDarkness thanks!
@WahrscheinlichIch oh stimmt. Naja, Glück gehabt, ich hatte nicht ordentlich zugehört aber ich bau ja eh immer gerne Features ein ^^
Yay! Thanks!! I was looking at the interior. The stove looks very realistic with the blue flame too! @WahrscheinlichIch
@MasterKiryu war es Vorgabe, 2 Features zu haben? O.o
@TTHHSSSS Yass! Congratulations ^^
It is just such a tiny little detail, that I wasn't sure, weather it would be found at all.
Figured it out! Landing gear turns on the stove!
@WahrscheinlichIch Meine Kreation hab ich heute erst angefangen (und fertig gebaut)
Hab aber auch so um die 10 Stunden dran gesessen ^^"
Das Schlimmste war es, dafür noch ne zweite Funktion zu finden.
Jetzt hab ich halt einfach ein Bremsruder unten dran gepappt ^^
The more I play with it the more incredibly cool it is!!! The sail is amazing!!!
@TTHHSSSS Thank you
@MasterKiryu Ich sitz da schon die ganze Woche dran. es würde mich wundern, wenn jemand anderes für seine ganze Einsendung so lange gebraucht hat, wie ich, um jedes Mal diese Mechanismen zu reparieren. 5-7 Stunden sind eine äußerst optimistische Schätzung. ^^
Hab mich heute mal den ganzen Tag hingesetzt, damit das Ding auch mal fertig wird.
Very nice design as well
Amazing detail!
Noice!
Auch noch eben am Abend zusammengebastelt? :D
