INEXHAUSTIBLE SUBJECT: THE DEAD EYE

AN INEXHAUSTIBLE SUBJECT: THE DEAD EYEModelers with experience know how difficult it is to produce copies of a sailboat hundreds most likely dead eye, which upholstered in the shrouds of masts, mast, Bram-mast and other elements. The manufacture of such micropetala is a very laborious task due to the complexity of the details and requirements for scale looks, greatly affecting the appearance of microporosity in General.

AEROBATIC “EXTRA”

AEROBATIC New built training model aerobatic aircraft surprised everyone, ourselves including. So successful was the combination of spectacular appearance (which is very highly valued by only pilots, as well as time of flight affects the evaluation of judges), the extraordinary simplicity and manufacturability, durability and good flight properties. Therefore, while the new aerobatic machine and is “preseminary” character, we named it “Extra”. It should be noted that the potential flight performance of this model is enough to perform the second sports category.

THE FATTY TYRES THE BIKE

FATTY TYRES THE BIKESince ancient times it was believed that one who follows the advice of an old Russian proverb: prepare sleighs in summer, and in winter the cart” without any doubt, can be considered a good, zealous master. Carried away almost ten years Cycling, I have always been fixing his “iron horse” and a complete set his spare parts in the winter. However, the last couple of years to do it neither winter nor summer has become almost impossible, because to buy in stores details possible only through happy accident.

A LITTLE ABOUT THE SCALE

Recently an increased interest among readers judging by the letters and calls to the editor, raise questions related to the bench scale models. It is caused, apparently, the increasing penetration of imported models to the Russian market. Hence the request to the editor: to tell you about a common, global scale bench models.

TAKE FROM AEROSOL

TAKE FROM AEROSOLIf you use as “inflatable fuel tanks cuts rubber catheters are recommended… not to throw away spent cartridges from under aerosol mixtures. The fact that after cutting of the cylinder is possible without damage to remove from the mounts the valve with the housing. And the valve is the ideal adapter for the production of “inflatable” tank. From the larger diameter valve has a shoulder, as if

THE FLOAT – ON FOOT, BY OARS AND SAIL

ON THE FLOAT - ON FOOT, BY OARS AND SAILPerhaps you will agree, that more accessible and useful for the health of stadiums than small and large rivers, lakes and reservoirs, and a large number are scattered all over the country, it is difficult to come up with. But today, they, unfortunately, are mostly deserted. In recent years, water a bit back from the sails of the windsurfers, but also this wonderful sport has not yet become widespread. Obstacles are the relatively high cost of the equipment and the small scale of its production.

FISSILE HANDLEBARS

FISSILE HANDLEBARSMany modelers use in training a discrete instrument. Its advantages — low cost and high reliability. But from failures nobody is guaranteed, and discrete hardware problems can lead to jamming of the steering wheel in extreme position. To be able in any case to save the model, just need to modify the drive wheels, causing a few power elements (regardless of their type, whether electromagnets, solenoids, or the centrifugal machine with thrusters on the course or pitch) to work in a single wheel, and separately for half.

ON THE WAY TO THE RECORDS

ON THE WAY TO THE RECORDSIn 1988 there was a serious prerequisite to the beginning of work on items for ignition, and primarily on spirals candles glow plugs of internal combustion engines. This was due to the currency problems, which almost completely stopped the flow of imported candles and candle-heads. Also affected by the desire to have a set of coils with different geometrical parameters (for fine-tuning of the engine).

IF IN TOW – GIVING

IF IN TOW - GIVINGWith the beginning of the summer season a long string of cars, “tired”, like their owners, in crowded cities during the long winter, at maximum speed mchu their owners to Sunny resorts. And more and more often on busy roads you can find cars with trailers, and in recent years — and intact houses-dachas on wheels. Many have thus successfully solve the difficult housing problem, getting rid of the problem of the presence or absence of free places in the campgrounds. Such structures are not repeatedly described in this magazine (see “M-To” № 6 73, № 7 75, № 7 77. № 5’79).

WINDROLLER IS A SAILING TRICYCLE

WINDROLLER IS A SAILING TRICYCLESailing has always been considered a true male. And not by accident: this sailor has the necessary power and speed of reaction, physical endurance, ability to keep calm in even the most difficult circumstances. However, sailing there are two significant negative First — seasonality in our mid-latitudes means to do it can be no more than five months in a year. And second, the need fairly large areas.
