Our family vehicle — a three-wheeled velotandem “the Vagabond” — designed by me for tours. From the same konstruktsii it is distinguished by the absence of any irreversible modifications to the basic bike on the basis of which created velotandem; ease of fabrication of additional parts and components which couple to the standard model turns into a three-wheeled trailer, as well as high reliability “Tramp” tested tough operation on the roads of Russia.
Like all tandems, our also has a smaller in comparison with a pair of conventional bicycles CX — the drag coefficient and, as a consequence, a lower sensitivity to the counter air flow. All of this allows easily for 4…5 hours to maintain a cruising speed of about 20 km/h (7 km/h uphill and 80 km/h on Sunnah). To resume movement, as experience has shown, it only takes two or three hours of rest, although the crew does not have high athletic qualities.
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”.
Easy to fly model aircraft. I want to offer young readers with “M-K” unpretentious three models, the design of which worked at the Center for Children’s technical creativity of the city Staraya Russa, where I work as the head of the model aircraft association. Drawings and diagrams allow a few hours to make good flying models, using quite affordable materials and simple tools. An important advantage of the proposed designs is that they can be run not only outdoors, but also indoors – in a school gym or in the hallway.
This small aircraft drew more attention to themselves at the Tushino international salon in June 1995. It differed from other such somewhat unusual layout. In conversation with its creators revealed that this design decision was made as a result of deep theoretical and experimental work conducted by the authors in the field of aerodynamic interaction of the wing and the propeller trikes. Learn more about your child we asked one of the designers of the project “Comet” and the pilot S. Sitdikova.
