The barque "Nürnberg" is a remotecontrolled model ship under construction, which is square rigged. The RC sailing boat requires an external keel with ballast. This video shows the trimming of the sailing ship in a pool, the determination of the center of gravity, the calculation of the center of the wind force due lever arms, and the empirical search of the lateral center on the hull. A heeling test was carried out to find out the permissible lateral wind force.
The maiden run is planned for spring 2024 at the Degersee meeting of the Minisail Classic.
