From the time of this writing I have built five catamarans of various designs. In designing, building and testing these boats took an active part my friend Anatoly Pavlovich Ignatchenko. Not to say that none of them did not satisfy me. A catamaran with inflatable floats performed well on water the Moscow region, and Lower Volga. But Pneumatics poorly kept shape, which significantly reduced the speed. So the idea arose to build a catamaran with rigid floats.
When I hear the word “dubbed”, it is a sun-drenched Playground, dry asphalt paths, summer-dressed children… unfortunately, autumn, winter and spring avtogorodok contraindicated. What should I do? Where to engage with students?
To make this model forces students 4-6 grades, first starting modeling. The first detail which you will need when building Navoiy 6. It is made of the housing 4 missiles and cap-cone 1. The last carved out of tree diameter casing.
Increasingly, we receive letters from readers describing flying models, which instead of internal combustion engines operate motors of different systems. This is quite natural and timely: judging by many indications, the electrification of aircraft modeling – in sight. No wonder the first successful examples of flying models are available in the “toy” version of some foreign model aircraft firms. Among them are low-cost models, capable of conducting free uncontrollable flight duration of 1-3 minutes, Cordoba for the different types of food on the wire and even radio-controlled model of the coast, including the piloting. The duration of the last flight without recharging has managed to bring up to 10-15 minutes. However, the electric power is still inferior to compression and heat rating.
Novice automodellista propose a simple model with a body made of thin stiff cardboard. Manufacture the body you need to start with drawing and cutting with the side walls of the pattern No. 1. To get the contours right and left walls, the pattern upside down. After cutting the parts beaten out from the inner side with a hammer, giving them a slightly curved profile. Longitudinal breaklines make incisions on half the thickness of the cardboard on the outside and the inside — on the dotted line.
The apparatus which I have named “aquaplane”, designed for active swimming on the back even for non-swimmers, with stops to rest as on a sun lounger, directly on the water surface. It consists of two separate parts: the float and foot oars plywood blade with “pedals”, the United articulated. The float consists of a foam Read more…
The classification of the European Association of Amateur athletes of ship modeling sport (“NAVIGA”) provides for managed competition models of sailing yachts in three classes: F5-M (“Marblehead”), F5-10 (“Enricher”) and F5-X (free). The design of boat models the first two classes has the names of the first winners of the European competition.
Its quality says the mere fact that he was in the SAI and the Commission on small boats of the city. Trailer six, the engine “Breeze-12”, remote. The trailer is made of sheet steel and aluminum, weighs 380 kg. inside, there are miniature pantry, two sofa beds, a washstand, gas stove, sink and even a TV. The upper part of the roof removable.
Description a three-wheeled tandem, published in issue No. 3, 1979, I liked inherent in it the idea to tandem bike of the usual single, without making major changes to the original design. But the proposed version was not very satisfied: still frame of the second bike had undergone the unwanted interference. I wanted to find a way of articulation, that when there is no need to tandem it was possible to restore the bike to original form.
What started karting? In the 30-ies very popular among American boys was competition for non-motorised trolleys moving along slant paths. Some Joker aptly called them “racing soap boxes.” And not without reason. The first truck actually had instead of the body wooden box, attached the wheels, instead steering was a rope connected to the ends of the front axle. Over time, the “racing soap boxes” has gained the rank of all-American Championships, which often have become well designed and carefully made by non-motorised carriages. But their name lived for a long time.
