Hypersonic rocket plane North American X-15. The construction of the spacecraft reusable type Shuttle “Buran” opened a new Chapter in manned space exploration. The design of this type of device has requested giant engineering research related to the problems that arise when flying at high altitudes and speeds.
In our magazine in 1973 (No. 2 cover No. 3, 4, and 6 — description and recommendations) we talked about the boat “TFA” air cushion, created by Swedish designer, Amateur Cumbersom Gustavson. The publication aroused the interest of many readers.
My car is really similar to a scooter, because her front end and engine (except for the cylinder 8 of PD) — from the “Vyatka”. All other components and parts taken from motorcycles and agricultural aggregates or manufactured in the home workshop.
“What to replace the gauge?” — this question often arose during the meeting with an interesting measurement scheme. Ohmmeter, voltmeter, test transistors — these devices are difficult to imagine without a milliammeter. Nevertheless, this instrumentation can work without a dial indicator. This is easy to see, collecting scheme, in which the role of the indicator does… sound generator.

Blanks of sheet metal with a thickness of 3 – 5mm will be more accurate and easier to bend at home if they are pre-trimmed along the fold lines using the grinder (and if the workpiece is not very long, and with a hand saw) about a third of the thickness of the sheet. And Read more…
Is it worth to reinvent the wheel? Readers of our magazine have long been convinced that it is worth. Example to the materials published in recent years in our magazine, spoke about the infinite variety of unusual bike designs — a Testament to the unstoppable imagination of their creators.
We often hear that the magazine “modelist-Konstruktor” is aimed primarily at designers and technology enthusiasts. But some of the ideas offered in the magazine relate to the architecture. They are easy to implement, and to implement, of course, require a head and male hands, having skills of working with wood.
In recent years the streets and roads of our country are increasingly the miniature machine, in appearance something of a cross between a kid’s scooter, a moped and a scooter. Their drivers are surprisingly deftly maneuver in a city stream, “not getting tangled in the legs” at large, “real” car and motorbike and however not at all inferior to them in speed.
The first car brand PORSCHE 356, released on 8 June 1948, was a two-seat Roadster created using components and assemblies of the legendary “Beetle”. And in 1951 started his career as a sports PORSCHE with a 44-strong engine working volume of 1100 cm3, which developed a speed of 160 km/h.
