In aeromodelling clubs of the pioneer of the Kominternovsky area, obsut and Kharkiv high school № 112 in a few years, work is underway on the co-axial model helicopters. Their designs are different, but they steadily fly. The following model is one of the latest versions. In the competition “Experiment 78” in the class of timed models of helicopters, she won first place.
This little torpedo boat continues a series of models for competitions. The model is simple to manufacture and has good driving characteristics.
In our home the garage there is a well-worn snowmobile “Buran”. I’m not going to Express their attitude to it in General, because the views of the owners on this issue diverge. However, the work of his heart — the motor always caused not only anxiety, but also from year to year required surgery. Every summer, making these “sleighs” for the winter season, in the engine due to wear and something changed: the rings, liners, pistons.
I’ve been a longtime reader and a regular subscriber of the magazine “modelist-Konstruktor”. For nearly forty years, not only got acquainted with the machines and mechanisms for designers and fans, but also created their. So we can classify themselves as a cohort of “DIY” with the experience. Built mainly teleoperative and transport equipment (walking tractors to monster trucks). Something from a previously created dismantled or altered, some sold, and some exploit until now, for example, a mini-tractor (or rather, self-propelled chassis), which design and present to readers.
Who more who less, but there is a need to transport long or bulky cargo which does not fit inside of the car.
Every summer and autumn young tourists go Hiking trips in his native land; the participants of the game “Zarnitsa” offers a wide variety of routes to places of military glory. Many of the guys and lovers of water travel on the river, boats. Their capabilities have greatly expanded with the arrival of a wide range of well-designed double folding kayak “Salyut-M of 4.7”. Salable and sustainable, with sufficient capacity and excellent cross-country, kayak allows you to make transitions through the “deaf” places.
KAYAK FOR… ICE. Who has ever tried to sit in the kayak, he knows how difficult it is to manage. Coaches have to be pretty to work with young athletes before they themselves rush unstable boats on the water, And here in the midst of training winter comes… For three or four months of inactivity to completely lose the skills obtained in the summer. Winter classes are “dry” theory, crosses, etc. m, but all this will not replace the kayak itself.
R-5M – the first in the world military equipment of the booster of the nuclear charge. Her starting weight was 28.6 tons, flight range is 1,200 km. Developed in 1954 – 1956, OKB-1 headed by S. P. Korolev on the basis of rocket R-5. In 1955, adopted in the USSR was adopted by the missile complex R-5, launch weight and range which were respectively 29 tons and 1200 km warhead Weight – about 1 ton. At start-up to a distance of 600 – 800 km, could be applied to two or four combat suspension with the use of a combined system, control the radio and Autonomous. Compared to previous products has significantly increased the accuracy of firing the missiles.
Nutrit simple enough that it is able to make even an aspiring young designer. And at the same time, the model demonstrates how without wheels, propeller or caterpillars can move miniature vehicles.
Still quite recently it seemed that forever passed away, imbued with romanticism, but proved impractical in our rationalistic age, the legendary tall ships of the past centuries — a light Brigantine, graceful schooners, swift clippers. However, forever?
