TRAILER-UNIVERSAL

TRAILER-UNIVERSALIn recent years, more and more difficult to find untrodden place, even in the Northern Russian province, for collecting berries, mushrooms and, of course, hunting.

When the need arises to duplicate any negative or slide, the question is how to do it. Contact method seems to be the easiest, but not always acceptable due to the complexity of determining the correct exposure in the exposure. For those who have a video camera to macro mode with pull-out fur (NRF or similar), the task is much simplified because it can be adapted for these purposes. Will need only an additional frame from the slide projectors of the type “Light” or “Etude” and a simple holder for mounting them on the console.

TRICYCLE WITH ROLL

TRICYCLE WITH ROLL

The history of car industry it is known that the first car was three-wheeled crew K. Benz. In the future, with increasing speed, was replaced by four-wheeled machine, the more stable in the turns. However, the designers did not leave the desire to create a three-wheeled chassis of the same resistance. It is constructively easier and lighter with the same capacity, therefore more reliable and cheap to operate.

WITH A PROPELLER IN THE WATER…

WITH A PROPELLER IN THE WATER...The propeller, or, as at the dawn of aviation, the propeller is experiencing a rebirth. The reason is the emergence of daltelecom and motor paragliders with very advanced rotor settings. The pilots quickly learned that they can be used in ground form.

It should be noted that the power units deltalyo power, reliability and efficiency are ideal for creating aerovision, since the parameters of the motor with propeller is not worse than the traditional powertrain with the propeller. Moreover, the boat with aredigital not afraid of shallow water, reeds, sedges and algae. Besides the engine, the glider releases the exhaust is not in the water, like an outboard or stationary power unit for any boat (from the point of view of environmentalists, this method of muffling the exhaust note is not tenable!), and in the air.
