Throwing gliders with a passion for design both beginners and experienced modelers. Draws here is that models of readily available materials to be not worse than those collected from scarce balsa.WIGWAM CHICK
These yellow fluffy lumps who only does not offend in the poultry yard. Kvochka has no time to ward off bullies or to hide them from the attacks of birds of prey. It is easy to help if you can arrange here such unusual teepee for Chicks in place of their feeding. Rods or pieces Read more…



Athletes, acting in competition with rezinomotornaya models it is well known the importance of precise trouble-free operation of the stopping device of the nasal boss. Therefore, the appearance of any new construction is of great interest to modelers.
That was in October 1925. Just ended all-Union glider competitions in Koktebel. Among non-motorized vehicles, flown there, considerable success has and the second design assistant mechanic usernamei squadron of the air force Academy named after N. Zhukovsky, Alexander Yakovlev. Winged victory, the young designer decided to take on the matter is much more complex — to build a light sport plane, then according to the accepted terminology — the aviette.
for the fifth year I subscribe to your magazine and I like it very much. It is always possible to choose good advice, interesting drawing. I am engaged in ship modeling circle at the city station of young technicians. In 1977 he was regional champion, and twice winner of the championship of the USSR, and in many respects I was helped by your magazine.
The NKL-26 was designed to carry a crew of two people – the commander of the machine (while running in combat operations of the function arrow) and a driver-mechanic. The body of the snowmobile hardwood, closed type, with four independently suspended steerable skis. The frame is recruited from transverse frames and longitudinal stringers and trimmed with plywood. The cross section of the body had the appearance of an inverted trapezoid. The front part defended fortified at an angle of 60° to the vertical armor plate shield. In it there was a hatch with a flap, which made a narrow slot.


Perhaps the most original and unexpected modification of the biplane was a project of winged An-2E. Currently, a large number of An-2 aircraft put into storage, mainly due to the complete production engines of their resource. Given that the alteration of these machines into the an-3 is going very slowly, a group of enthusiasts headed by YV Makarov suggested that An-2 ekranoplan. This biplane box of wings is replaced by one bearing a triangular surface. This wing will allow you to fly at heights up to 5 m with the use of the proximity effect of the earth. Instead of the engine ASH-62IR a car diesel.
It is intended for the instant fixing of parts of circular cross-section axes, rods, rollers and the like. It can be used when drilling the end holes, milling flats, slots, or splines. The clip comes to the rescue and in the metal machining as it can be conveniently mounted in a vise. Another advantage of the device — a reliable fixation of the parts during processing.
