“Ice bird” called athletes Buer-“vosjmimetrovaya” for his high speed and the ease with which it allows you to make turns and maneuver. Especially for “sense the wind”: the throttle response, as told to motorists. Finally, the ability to immediately respond to any request of the steering: “good message” — would have celebrated horsemen. This is true, because his “power to weight ratio” — the ratio of the area of the sail to the total weight of the glider is higher than other types. But still Berestov attracts you to a free class: if the rest are monotypes, and must exactly match your standard, there are great opportunities for creativity, experiment.ICE BIRD

Riding on the electric chart is this — silent and swift. We got it, which is the usual standard cards. The internal combustion engine is removed and the seat moved forward by 100 mm, which allowed to install on the frame between it and the rear axle battery 6CT-132. This arrangement lowered the center of gravity and improved weight distribution on the wheels.
I’m a longtime admirer of the magazine “modelist-Konstruktor” and subscribed to it for many years. Then, due to financial difficulties had to deny yourself this. But since last year started to write again. I am glad that, as before, in publications find lot of useful information.
Central to the exhibition NTTM-82 this car attracted the attention of visitors not less, than standing next to the new “Lada” with a rotary engine. It is not surprising, because it very unusual that he double, and open, roofless cabin, and the plastic body, and an intriguing name “Sport-tourist”. Unusual and the story of its creation.
“Shortly before the New year left to drink” — whether in jest, whether seriously says on the website www.snowmobile.ru acting under the nickname (alias) Canosa Alexander Zaozerskaya from the city of Totma in the Vologda region. During a multi-day holidays came across the magazine “modelist-Konstruktor” No. 11 for 1991. It was the publication of a homemade crawler snowmobile “Idea-2”. Also decided to try to build a “snezhik”, good experience of working with iron were for his workshop all woodworking machines made with their own hands.
Well known to our guys managed sledge “Chuk and GEK” called snegokat because it is meant for use only on the slopes of the snow hills. Rapidly — only the wind whistles! — rushing snow-cats down on their three skis. Front controlled, allows you to change direction to avoid obstacles. But as soon as the slope of the end — sled, Proskuriv some more inertia, will stop: on level ground they will not leave. Then on the old proverb: love to ride — love and sleigh to haul! The rope and the slide. But what is it? The distance seemed “Chuk and GEK”, which, having fallen down with the same speed continues to race on a flat snow field. Here the rider was a teenager deploys a cool scooter, and surprisingly others behind him opened hinged to the frame a motor and caterpillar. This is already a snowmobile. And it was built Moskvich Yu. Tereschenko.
Is it possible nowadays to build your own plane? Tver aircraft enthusiasts Eugene Ignatiev, Yuri Gulak and Alexander Abramov answered this question in the affirmative, creating a winged single machine, later named “Argo-02”. The plane was successful: successfully flew on all-Union competitions, was the first winner of regional review-competition of Amateur aircraft in Yaroslavl. The secret to increased popularity of “Argo” Amateur aviators not the designer or the technological refinements of designers, but rather – their traditionalism. The designers managed to achieve a successful combination of waste over many decades of design methods of wooden cars of the 1920-ies and 1930-ies and modern aerodynamic calculations of aircraft of this class. This is perhaps one of the main advantages of the aircraft: its production does not require advanced plastics and composites, rental of high-strength metals and synthetic fabric with the pine timber, some plywood, fabric and enamel.
Unlike analog, in the boat “Victoria” from St. Petersburg to create an air cushion and propulsive forces (thrust) uses an air screw. This allows the machine to move using both static and dynamic air cushion. The transition from mode to mode is performed by changing speeds.
The search for the optimal design of passenger car is a matter of time. The solution to this problem and doing powerful design Bureau leading automotive companies and associations, and Amateur designers. Our magazine has repeatedly appealed to the topic. Today we offer enthusiasts autocostruzione two promising development of the Moscow engineers P. Zak and E. Rudyk.
