ONCE AGAIN, THE “PACE”

ONCE AGAIN, THE Any of us can certainly, without hesitation, to list a lot of famous planes, cars and ships, inscribed your page in history of development of military and civilian equipment. However, it turns out, the model a scheme could play a significant role. Let not the history of all the equipment, and only one type of technical sport.

But is it unimportant — to inspire thousands of children to the creation and design of analogues of these machines, to teach them how to work with different tool and think it is as a design engineer?
 
Recall the set-package of avtomodelistov, which produced virtually no modifications since 1959. Refers to racing Temp. Moreover, it should be noted that for him the lack of upgrades is only an indicator of the soundness of the design.
 
This little micro-car is well known to many, and almost every Automobilist certainly started my career with this set. Even today, when the riders manage their microkeratome to overcome the threshold speed of 300 km/h, no-no and will meet the same competition the guys with “Temp”. This simple and reliable model allows them early to know the tense atmosphere starts to learn how to cultivate the special qualities of the model athlete.
 
However, guys, after studying this great machine, trying with their usual meticulousness to make the design something of their own, and often unsuccessfully.
 
Today we want to acquaint readers with the new developments in the design of “Tempo” members of the self-similar sections of the Palace of pioneers of the Pervomaisky district of Moscow.
just about the engine. It high forces caused the necessity of finishing the whole model. Reamed to a diameter of 8 mm overlay threaded carb, special grinding of the working pair, the installation of microcontrast, the selection of valve timing and the use of steel bands for high-precision ball bearings of the crankshaft allowed the engine to reach such momentum that have not kept a regular rubber wheel: she stretched and torn during the races. It became clear that the “tires” it will not hold engine speed from color pair (brass chromed liner — piston aluminum alloy), which is intended to be used in the future.
 
In the converted version of the model changed and the location of the head of the motor. Now she’s back. This provides unobstructed access to the adjustment screw kontrpartiya when cropped for better engine cooling the rear part of the staffing body. The main purpose of this operation is to release the motor from the intake to the carb hot air mixed with a large amount of exhaust gases and burned out of the waste oil.
 
Changed power supply system. The tank remains the same, only the drainage tube is soldered so that the formed single-chamber “drinker”, well-known modelers. Automatic stop and… be familiar with the pattern: the fewer parts in the node, the more reliable it is. So, this machine is one detail! This wire whisker, screwed to the underside of the body and passing through sinovenous slit in the outer Board. The wire is bent so constantly prodavlivaet down due to its own elasticity, has two fixed positions at the ends curved up slit. The rear end of her propylene deeply, so the us shot down a stopping device from a normal forward position, sharply compressed by passing underneath a rubber feeding tube.
 
Same as rear, a cropped front and that clearly improved the conditions for cooling a high-powered engine. Cutout closed brass mesh stretched over a simple tin frame. Now the mud and sand will not get into the motor. Of course, there is no need in the top window, saws in the lid of the staffing body.
 
Racing car
 
Racing car Temp after revision:
 
1 — the driven wheels, 2 — front suspension fork (OBC Ø 2 mm), 3 — mesh air intake, 4 — frame (sheet 0,4 mm), 5 — biscuit (D16T), 6 — auxiliary drain pipe (after refueling of the tank must be closed), 7 — tank, 8 — the drain pipe of the tank-drinkers, 9 — us machine stop (OVS Ø 2 mm), 10 — driving wheel, 11 — support sleeve with the disc (brass), 12 “Temp — 1”, 13 — the crutch 14 — cord strap, 15 — heel clip supply tube (PCB), 16 — tube (rubber, makabansa-resistant), 17 — pound.

 
Immediately behind the grid to the low prevernal dural biscuit. Between its two halves clamped wire, forming a suspension of the front wheels. This solution gives the opportunity . to get rid of the shortcomings of the leaf spring, changing the track in depreciation. The fact that due to changing gauge there were unnecessary slowdown of the car, hardly noticeable only at low speeds. The same suspension wire can be bent in different ways, varying the mounting distance between the wheels, the stiffness of the suspension and removal of front axle — in either case, the deformation of this elastic member will not affect the size of the track.
We have already mentioned the tone that the wheels are not kept in a pair with the upgraded engine. Therefore, they are produced again in accordance with modern requirements. Leading “knives” have a slightly larger diameter, since the capacity of the plant increased. Inside of each wheel when it is curing brewed a core of brass. Although it is a material with a large specific weight, the use of it is justified — with a perfectly rigid suspension, wheels they don’t belong to the so-called unsprung masses, which it is desirable to have a minimum value. The “Temp” as a kind of flywheel-wheel helps the engine better hold mode. Yes, and rubber is welded to the brass tightly, can not be said about duralumin.
 
Finishing work on a modernized “Tempo”, do not forget that you need to find a new position Northway strap. Since the center of gravity of the model is certainly moved .ago, again make sure that the longitudinal axis of the hanging strap of the little micro-car was strictly horizontal, and the axis of the drive wheels vertical. This will ensure the correct position of the body and wheels of “Pace” on the track during a race.
