Loosing up the dive the sail dive planes on the 1:72 Skipjack

[Casey Thrower]

Seems like a lot of resistance in the sail dive planes. Grease or just hollow out the holes?

[He Who Shall Not Be Named]

Are the gear teeth too tight a mesh? Is the gear operating shaft too long, its ends rubbing tightly against the inside walls of the sail? are the bearing holes through which the sail plane operating shaft passes too tight?

No grease!

[Casey Thrower]

Seems the sail plane shafts are a bit too snug.

Open up the bearing holes in the sides of the sail and you're good.
