Yuri Sergeyev, Kiev”.
 
“…The quality of microelectrodes depend largely on future athletic performance of the model. Is it still at the store counter to determine the reliability of an engine, will not fail if it is during the critical start?

HELPS SPRING

HELPS SPRINGExperienced modelers-conovici much focus on connecting cords and the rocking the control cables. Especially careful they draw their conclusion from the wing — this often depends on the successful flight model as in training and competitions. Accidental kinking of the cable pull — and stuck in the system control leads to the fact that the miniature aircraft crashes.

REZINOMOTORNAYA HELICOPTER

REZINOMOTORNAYA HELICOPTERThe model we offer you to make, made by rare scheme — two bearing rotor during rotation intersect. To build it is not very difficult — especially as the engine are well-known modelers rubber tubing. Energy stored in them when you twist, enough to fly a small model of this type. The diameter of the rotor is 600 mm, and each of them has its own shaft, both rotating in opposite directions, which provides a synchronizing mechanism. Four gears cut from metal gears with a suitable external diameter, which you can pick up from parts of an old alarm clock or a broken clockwork toy. After processing, the thickness of each gear should be about 2 mm, the diameter of inner hole is 2 mm.

TRIUMPH: COMFORT PLUS SPEED

“They are not afraid of obstacles!” this is the motto of our magazine a few years ago began to publish descriptions of the designs of a homemade all-terrain of micro-technology, immediately attracted the attention and then the affection of readers. During this time in our regular sections “Public CB “M-K”, “Create, invent, try!”, “Competition of ideas” we talked about many unusual and original machines: all kinds of snowmobiles and amphibians, multiwheel and tracked micro cars, motonartah, sports-dirt cars buggy, snowmobile. In this opening year we introduce another interesting development — snowmobile “Triumph”, created by the designers-lovers from Saratov O. YAKOVLEV and V. SIDE.

THE MOTORS ON THE PALM

ENGINES.The readers of our magazine are familiar according to previous publications the name of the Moscow designer-lover of Alexander Abramov. Despite his advanced age (he is now 85 years old), he continues to be active creative activity. In his home lab many layouts, working models and full-scale models of various mechanisms, including engines. Alexander invented and built dozens of them. Many of the designs are unusual and contain original ideas. But the author does not jealously protect their technological innovations from third-party curious look, but rather generously shares with all who show interest in its development. So this time, inventing and testing a few new arrangements, Alexander makes some of them to the reader’s judgment.

THE “OLDEST” CATEGORY OF MODEL ROCKETS

Of all classes and types of rocket parachute patterns category S3 the most “ancient”. At the dawn of the emergence and development of rocket modeling one of the criteria of the competition was the duration of the flight. At that time it was a simple and straightforward comparative characteristics of flying model rockets. By the way, today the flight is the determining factor the benefits and performance of model rockets with a parachute. And watch the in-flight model with a large beautiful dome — fun.
