Gypsy Sloop Jr.
When I was in high school back in 1957 I built a kit of the Comet Gypsy Sloop Jr. in 2016 I found the drawings on-line for the Gypsy Jr. The boat was entered in woodworking class at our county fair where it received a blue ribbon. it has a working wheel that turns the rudder. Now I have under construction a 32 inch version that I would like to radio control. I'm not too sure how to set up or what type of servo to install.

    Well done that man 👍
    Unfortunately I'm not a yacheting man so can't help you directly with the setup.
    BUT HEY! There's lots of yachties on this site! I've seen many discussions, threads and blogs on various yacht setups ....
    Soooo ... pull your digits out guys, give the man a break and help him out with his yacht setup.
    Cheers, Doug 😎

    Go with swing arm servos for sail control, less trouble with the lines than winch. if room is a problem one can be used to control jibs & main. but separate controls are obviously best.
