Only the all-Union competition “the Space” conducted by our magazine, gathers every year hundreds of young connoisseurs of space. The opening of this article a series of articles on rocket modeling, the editors hope that they will be an additional tool for club Directors and their participants.

The name of the athlete rakatomalala Igor Ponomarev, that is, “hearing” and “rocket scientists” and, hopefully, our readers. His technical model development are of genuine interest.

I guess this is a good example for our young readers.
In the history of the world Cup on aviamodelling sports, this has not happened; 42 athlete speakers with models of gliders, after seven rounds was the maximum number of points — 1260.
