“SWIFT-ACROBAT”

 

Microgravity class F3A are becoming more popular. However, their production is possible only to experienced modelers. Teenagers need a compact, simple to assemble and easy to use flight model of a simplified scheme under the compression motor small cubic capacity. Initially, we expected it under domestic MK-17 “Junior”, however, due to the low location of the tank the motor was bad possivel fuel, and had to be replaced compression “Meteor”.

MODERN SCHEME

MODERN SCHEMEOdnokomnatnaya model well-earned position in the class F2A. At competitions it is hard to escape the thought that flies the same speed — they are so similar. The approved scheme is fully justified. Stretched the console closes a lot of plot cord”brake”, and the plot is moving with the greatest speed and therefore creating a short in the normal wing the greatest resistance.

However odnokomnatnoj the scheme has a distinctive shortcoming: if the engine stops the model immediately sharply losing altitude. Struggled with it, inserting the elements of the external console.

But one of the departures on the training time made everyone think differently.

THE PUMP HOUSE IN D-6

- TOWER IN THE D-6Widespread in everyday life got electric pumps “Kama”, “Trickle” and others.
