Schematic model of the airframe and the aircraft, as you know, started flying much earlier than their full-size prototypes. Paving the real aircraft’s path in the sky, they are now helping novice modelers to do their first steps in small aircraft. It is a pity that “schematicity” of today do not differ from those that did even our grandparents: all of the same pine strips, aluminum wire, model aircraft rubber, a little tissue paper, yarn and glue. No new materials, no advanced design and engineering techniques. This publication is offered to novice modelers a simple universal model, which the manufacturer is not much more complicated schematic, but its aerodynamics and, consequently, the flight data is on a modern level.
Competitions of different rank showed that as prototypes for the manufacture of contour models are used only a dozen types of aircraft. And to participate our aeromodelling circle in the next competition, it was decided to make a model rare prototype. Our choice fell on PIPER CAB, one of the most successful light aircraft, produced in mass quantities since the pre-war (1935).
Deserved recognition and popularity enjoyed by amateur radio operators is quite simple and reliable circuit includes flip-flop on the two transistors and a pair of thyristors controlled them. It allows you to alternately switch the four incandescent lamps or garlands for the effect of “running lights”.
