GLIDER WITHOUT SECRETS

THE GLIDER WITHOUT SECRETS“Fly higher, farther, faster!” This aircraft is the slogan became the motto of hang gliders. In our picture the glider master of sports M. B. Gokhberg. The front part of the dome is raised above the spar and forms a profile line, which significantly improves the aerodynamic efficiency of the machine. This glider Hochberg flew competition gliders Moscow area and became the absolute champion of the sum of three exercises.

VELOIMPERIA

VELOIMPERIYADiverse and numerous family water bikes, but they all have a major flaw: transport them by land very difficult. Another thing – “ampipe”, on land he feels as confident as on the water. The secret to this versatility in the propeller – crankshaft with propeller wheels when traveling on the roads is the leading “front axle”.

MINI-MOKIK BIKE FROM

MINI-MOKIK BIKE FROMThe age of the members in the club of young technicians “planet” in the city of Izhevsk with a range from primary school students to graduates. And if the seniors are more interested in serious equipment (tillers, snowmobiles, ATVs, etc.), for the younger most attractive lightweight motorcycles, it was possible to start to ride. Therefore, the technical creativity of each new generation of young inventors usually begins with the development of mini-mokik. One of these machines has been described in the publication “Gasoline is not necessary” at No. 9 in 1997, “Model construction”. In it they talked about the design on the base frame and running gear from the Riga mini-mokik with motor drive MD-1 serial excitation. Unfortunately, this idea has not received development, as it was not possible to find a more lightweight, but powerful battery is a heavy car, which had to use in this design. Therefore, in the future to drive mokikov used traditional petrol engines type D-6, D-8.

CARAVAN

HOUSE ON WHEELSNo, we are not talking about shifting residential home from one place to another, what we have witnessed in the period of reconstruction of our cities, and about unusual homes-travelers — cars. It is very difficult to tell who was a pioneer of this new technical direction and on the roads what country had the first car in the back which placed the whole apartment. Most likely, the house on wheels was created simultaneously in many countries, by many designers, and each solved the problem differently- depending on their tastes and possibilities either from the profile of the automotive company where he worked. Under this originated and the principal directions is clearly determined to date, which can be classified roughly as follows.

She calls the craftsmen to look for ways to simplify the design and reduce the cost of technology for the construction of the vessel, receipt for sailing on rivers and inland waters of our country. This design was created and tested for use by members of the OKB in our magazine. And here’s the place it takes in the “table of ranks” of the sailing fleet.
