ROCKET CLASS S4B

ROCKET CLASS S4BThe proposed model is performed according to the scheme “duck”. The stabilizer is located in front of the wing, contributes to the sustainability planning mode. A deviation to vertical position after deployment, a simple “timer” (wick device ignites the expelling charge motor) ensures a safe landing apparatus.

“AERODZHIP”: FROM DESIGN TO MACHINE

Student design Bureau of the Riga red-banner Institute of civil aviation engineers named Lenin Komsomol familiar to the readers of our magazine. Development of Riga have been exhibited at Central exhibitions NTTM at ENEA USSR. Some of them — the wig and bioacoustics systems, seaplanes and apparatus for measuring motion parameters of aircrafts and trikes for agriculture told “modelist-Konstruktor”.

ALL FOUR LEADING

ALL FOUR LEADING
The vehicle is made according to the scheme proven by the tractor “Kirovets”. He has the same “breaking” the frame and drive on both bridges. What gives? First, the permeability. Frame, continuously curving, as if tracking the terrain. All four wheels are constantly in contact with the surface. This eliminates the overload of individual wheels and slip them on uneven ground and secondly, the maneuverability. The hinged frame is sensitive to even the slight deflection of the steering wheel and allows you to turn almost on the spot. Thirdly, constructive simplicity. In this scheme, you can use exactly the same front and rear axles. Simple turns and the engine mount.

YUNIOR AND HIS RESERVES

We can safely say: engine MK-17 “Junior” is familiar to all modelers. One of the most popular among beginners and are produced in large series, it encourages the modeling of thousands of boys. Under the motor created a lot of industrial kits, semi-finished products. With models equipped with “Juniors” are the first sports categories air-, ship-, avtomodelisty-students and young builders of the different copies.

FOR EVERY TASTE AND AGE!

FOR EVERY TASTE AND AGE!

Cyclist with experience or cyclists are hard to convince that there is a treadle machine better than “Tourist”, “Sports”, “Satellite”. For many years I preferred legkodelimae bike over all the others. However, with the advent of folding machines became obvious advantage during transportation and storage. But, unfortunately, it turned out that the effort that is required to make when moving they are more relevant to bicycles.

GLIDERS OVER THE PANEVEZYS

GLIDERS ON PANEVĖŽYS

Weather did not spoil the young glider pilots. The sky is high and blue, as it often happens in Lithuania at this time of year, gray and low down over the green field airport. Strong gusty wind ruffled over the hangar zastiranny rain striped “stocking” of the determinant of the direction of the wind. Chief judge of the competition Mr. Canario and then looked at the clouds, thinking, not whether to cancel flights. And even newsreel cameramen from Perm, arrived to make a documentary about his countrymen, the young athletes from the city of Lysva, are unable to resist the complaints about bad weather, because color film, as is well known, loves the sun…

SCHOOL OF AIRCRAFT (PART 5)

SCHOOL OF AIRCRAFT (PART 5)GLIDER OR GLIDER? Unpowered gliding flight has long attracted man. It would seem that what is easier is attached to the back wings, jumped down the mountain and … flew. Alas, many attempts to rise into the air, described in historical Chronicles, has led to success only in the late nineteenth century. The first glider was a German engineer, Otto Lilienthal, glider balance created is very dangerous to fly the aircraft. In the end, the glider of Lilienthal killed its Creator and brought a lot of trouble enthusiasts gliding flight.

SAILING BOARD OF NEW GENERATIONIn two decades of Windsurfing technical equipment of the sport has undergone many changes. Through the efforts of enthusiasts Board sailing from clumsy boats, is a conventional surf surfer with a sail attached, turned into a projectile, embodying the latest achievements of Aero – and hydrodynamics and constructed of materials that previously were used only in aerospace engineering, for example, carbon fiber and Kevlar.

MINUTE RUN

MINUTE TO STARTOnly four minutes, the athletes rakatomalala to prepare for the start. How much do you need to keep up with the time flying at the competition as if one moment: to install the model on the guide pin. To connect Elektrostal, to determine the atmospheric conditions at this point and calculate the direction of flight, accurately to execute the command “start!”.
