TANDEM FOR TWO, THREE, FOUR

TANDEM FOR TWO, THREE, FOURFor a basis we took the road bike (with “women’s” frame), set on it a longitudinal beam of the two aluminum profiles-“parts” and fixed on the beam two seats with backs so that the first rider was able to pedal the front wheel drive and the second conventional chain drive the rear wheels. So we got a double bike with the same dimensions that and serial single. Sitting in the front seat rotations”t pedal for more drive, located in the center of the front wheel, supports the balance, and also serves as the driver. The second rider works the pedals, resulting in the rotation of the rear wheel while sticking the handles on the back of the front seat.

DESIGN GYROPLANE DAS-2M

DESIGN OF A GYROPLANE DAS-2M

The fuselage truss, tubular, collapsible design. The main element of the fuselage is a frame consisting of horizontal and vertical (pole) pipes ø 75X1, made of steel 30KHGSA. They are mounted towing hitch with lock and receiver air pressure, the dashboard, the pilot seat, secured with seat belt, control unit, tricycle, with a nose steerable wheel chassis mounted on motorhome power unit with a pusher propeller, stabilizer, keel with rudder ball joint to the rotor. Under the keel mounted auxiliary tail wheel with a diameter of 75 mm. together with the Pylon struts d 38X2 length 1260 mm, tubular beams, the main wheels d 42X 2 with a length of 770 mm, made of titanium alloy VT-2, and braces d 25X1 length 730 mm of steel 30KHGSA forms of spatial power frame, the center of which is the pilot. With the horizontal tube of the fuselage and the ball joint of the main rotor pylon connects with titanium rails. In the installation of the scarves in the tubes is established the bougies made of aluminum В95Т1.

MOKIK ON THREE WHEELS

Easy tricycle Lama, apparently, ‘ will be the perfect means of transport for many — including for people who have lost mobility, deprived of the ability to walk normally. It is stable, develops a moderate speed — up to 30 km/h, and its one door body, made with simplified technology, well protects the driver from the vagaries of the weather. But most importantly — mokik with the engine up to 50 cm 3 and such a low speed in accordance with the rules of the road vehicle is not, and therefore can be made without a license and without registration in GAI.,

Since 1985, we have been able to accumulate a lot of experience, primarily in the tow missions on our designs.
