MOTOVILOVYM

MOTOFLOORI’m a longtime reader and a regular subscriber of your magazine. Send in edition of a photo made by me Motovilova, which often make field trips to set the mood… Motofloor, which was called “Shaitan-Arba”, produced from aggregates and a old moped and bicycles. The feature of structures is that both the rear (napadovska) the wheels of Motovilovka leading, and the right is driven in rotation by the engine D6, and the left pedal, through a separate chain drive.

STARTS SUBMARINE

STARTS SUBMARINE

For all the apparent simplicity of the hull shape and small number of add-ons to create models of submarines a very difficult job. And yet, the modelers love to Tinker with them: well done model starts steadily and rarely fails its designer. In addition, the degree of difficulty — depending on which class preferred — also very different: there are the subs, do that and beginners, and for the manufacture of which requires a specific skill and experience. These include and publish here the model of the submarine. Such models repeatedly won prizes at all-Union competitions.

ZAZ-965 “Zaporozhets”

ZAZ-965 The domestic auto industry came to the choice of the prototype for the production of small-car very responsibly — was based on FIAT600 miniature, won in Europe, indeed wildly popular. The design of the new “vehicle” was entrusted to design Bureau of the Moscow plant of small cars — MZMA. Within a year, was created prototypes of the machine, which received the name of the factory “Moskvich-444”. The car is initially equipped with two-cylinder motorcycle engine MD-65 capacity of 17.5 HP, but tests showed that it is rather weak for such a vehicle. Instead, he designed a four-cylinder V-shaped 23-horsepower air-cooled engine.

THE FLASHER-PROBE

Electric circuit “call” usually with a tester or device with audible indication. The probe, about which we talk today, informs about the health of an electric circuit with a light signal. He exhibited at the 29th all-Union exhibition of creativity of radio fans-designers. With such a device it is easy to find broken or short-circuited sections in strings and cables, checked relays, resistors, capacitors, fuses, light bulbs, determine the status of the p-n junctions for diodes and transistors. An indicator is a miniature light bulb, for example, CMH10-50.
