Tuning the #1 rig

Here's a recent video of Thunderbird 1 sailing in RC mode with the number one rig up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzVZPKuh7WA

Sorry for the lack of posts recently. We've been seriously busy, what with finishing the school year, finishing our yacht, starting jobs, and programming programming programming!
Thunderbird 1 is sailing extremely well, as you can see in the video above. There is still much work to be done in the area of autonomation, but we have come a long way from the back of the napkin design we had in January! Karl, Don, and I will be in Annapolis less than a month from now, so stay tuned for updates as we close in on the competition.
