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.BUILDING A CAR

Numerous family water bikes added another interesting machine designed by our reader — engineer G. Ovchinnikov from Dnepropetrovsk. Ovchinnikov — motorist. Therefore, the main task for himself, he put the establishment of such a water bike which can be transported to krasivom the trunk of the car.
The peculiarity of the proposed model rocket class “Hawk” — the displacement of the wing at takeoff. As this increases the area of the tail section, shifting the center of pressure of the model. The eye receives greater stability in flight with the engine running.
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.).
Start 30-ies was a time of rapid development of Soviet gliding. The newly constructed plant produced serial training gliders and sent them to all parts of the Soviet Union for gliding schools, stations and groups.
I — a longtime and devoted reader of the magazine “modelist-Konstruktor”. And now decided to write about my velomobile, which has created, as they say, “on the knee”.
The details of the models are usually made of plastic or metal by machining. However, when they have much better detail molding plastic in a plaster mold. To prepare plastic from acrylic powder AKR-7, zameshennogo on the solvent to a paste-like state. Both of the required components are available in denture sets.
In this issue we introduce young innovators, participants of operation “the Introduction” with an unusual method of drying developed in Nikolaev. At our request about it, say the authors of this new technology, which not only shortens the production cycle, but also provides high quality wood.
The space is calling the boys. Today almost every student dreams of becoming an astronaut as well as in the distant 30-ies of their peers dreamed of aviation. And like a decade ago, the guys are preparing for the upcoming tournaments. Learn in flying circles a theory to build complex models-copies “Union”, sport rockets, participate in competitions and contests. 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.
