With the magazine “modelist-Konstruktor” sign not the first year. Mainly as a diligent reader and a little less like a homebrew, trying in conditions of simple home workshop to put into practice some of the promoted ideas and solutions. Now offer one of their own developments. Its essence is in the equipment standard plug led indicator. Upgraded fork gives you the ability to visually monitor a current flow in the load. When specified in the schema the values of the total capacity of devices connected to the plug-signalling device shall not exceed 500 watts. Well, if the load is solid, will have to replace the placed in the fork diodes КД208А to the semiconductor counterparts with higher energy parameters.

The dream of many guys who build model ships to create a ship, very similar to any real prototype. While it would be good to compete with him. Offer a good model of English search and patrol boats RAF 340, made on a scale of 1:42,7 according to the requirements of the popular class EX. A small twin-shaft vehicle of the second world war, he participated in search and rescue of downed or in distress over the sea pilots, reflecting the attacks of German aviation to the UK. The ship speeds up to 45 knots.
When using electrical appliances (e.g. electric light), there is an inconvenience: you want to sleep but have to get up to go to the outlet and remove it from the fork. The proposed electronic device allows you to control (turn in work on or off) of various household appliances at a distance of just spoken sounds. Suffice it to say a certain word and please: earned (or stopped) the radio or television; lit (or extinguished) electric lamp or Christmas tree garland.
In my opinion, the most effective seem to be those developments that do not need to “up from zero”: we will focus on improving ready-made industrial electronic devices on their own. The result is a very modern functional design, one of which I bring to your attention. This is an additional node to industrial flash SEF-1 produced once the millions of “copies”.
Homemade welding machines are engaged not the first year. In their manufacture into account the advice and recommendations of the “Model construction” and other well-established technical publications and reference literature. Started with “Welding baby” (No. 11, ’87), using the Latr ready with the primary winding. For secondary — recommended magazine, Shino-wire not found. Dare to wind the desired number of turns of the flexible stranded wire 6 mm2 in vinyl insulation. And what? Of course, such a device quickly overheated even when welding of cellular electrode. To somehow solve the problem associated with cooling, have decided to omit the “svarochnik”… in the water. Came from the fact that the secondary winding is great for insulation. And primary, which went before the slider wasn’t exposed as proactively managed to cover it in several layers of protective varnish.
Many quite rightly believe that automobilism is one of the most exciting and spectacular forms of diverse technical activities. Here you can find a lot of sharply differing from other classes of models, including, it seems, the whole conceivable spectrum of interests of athletes and fans of all ages. However, in automodelisme there is a continuous development. Today, we are talking about a completely new class of RC — “Buggy-8D”, which in Russia is more than short. The first official information about it was entered the Central self-similar club in edition of changes and additions to the rules of the competition for the self-similar sport at the end of 1993. In the same year took place in Tambov and the first “booster”, the championship of Russia in the new class. Participated athletes using exclusively machine-handmade. Unfortunately, the result of these competitions was due to poor weather conditions is almost zero.
It would seem that can be the total electric drill hole puncher, washing rubber (eraser) and a paper clip? But O. Lavrov, who considers himself a graduate of our magazine, was able not only to see it shared, but make stationery to work successfully in a number of original technical solutions. As a result of normal (and battered) drill inquiring of homebrew has expanded its typical “drill-tocil-wide” function. Now she can, if necessary, and tighten screws to Unscrew, and if you really itch — even a jigsaw or hacksaw would work tolerably well. All you need is the right tooling (this material is not considered).
In the Russian self-similar sports, as worldwide, the most popular class of RC 10L. RC little micro-car is equipped with a motor of the type “Mabuchi-540” and the battery pack of the six elements. Control occurs through two channels — the turn of the front wheels and speed control of the motor. Competitions are held on the track, marked side; it can be fitted inside (in the hangar, hall, indoor stadium) and the outdoors. Body patterns repeat! real racing car in scale 1:10.
Thank you so much, friend magazine, for the development of welding transformers. Inspired by the publications took a chance and made themselves compact, but quite powerful “svarochnik” based on “on the margins” of the burnt stator from a induction motor. Now that dream is about as good design of the rectifier… help me out, dear journal. On you one hope!
Industry now available good double wire with PVC insulation, which occupies when winding on the bobbin a little space. So there is no need to do cumbersome carrying, about which the magazine wrote some time ago. However, the idea Tihonovich from Kharkov (“modelist-Konstruktor” No. 10 of 1985) good. So I decided to develop it further, making the appropriate changes.
