After our magazine began to publish materials about motonartah, created by enthusiasts of technical creativity, the number of such vehicles built by Amateurs has increased dramatically. Many of them according to their operating characteristics, reliability and original design solutions of individual units are not inferior to motoneta by the industry. It fans belongs priority in the use of metal tracks instead of rubber, which become unusable at low temperatures; it has conducted a number of experiments with different wheels (spiked wheels, screws, conical paddle wheels, multi-tracks, etc.).

Simple radio-controlled model aircraft. Considered to be the creation of radio controlled model aircraft — the inheritance of true craftsmen-modelers. Many also think that a good RC-model to do at home is almost impossible There is also a view that it is easier and cheaper to buy original parts kit and assemble the model, developed by professionals to fly which is guaranteed to be decent.
ACCORDING TO THE RULES. Twenty years ago there was an extensive debate: to allow or deny self-made cars? The idea of their buildings were resistant opponents. The latter believed that “homebrew” is driven by the mere desire to get the lowest cost vehicle. Argued that such transport is made in the handicraft way, appearance is far from perfect and will not decorate the streets. But, more importantly, it can even be dangerous, as an Amateur production does not meet the requirements of industrial technology. In addition, skeptics have suggested that the need to use scarce parts can push fans to bypass the distribution network and other abuse.
