THROWING OUT FOAM

THROWING FOAMThrowing gliders are very popular among novice modelers. The fact that the technological and constructive simplicity, these miniature models have performance of more complex models. Miniature aircraft when you start the cast can climb more than 20 meters, they held steady in the “thermals” and sometimes depart quite far from the start.

RC — FOR ALL

RC FOR ALLSimple 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.

CASTING OF PLASTICS

MOULDING OF PLASTICSThe 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.

AT THE START — SINGLE-STAGE

AT THE START — SINGLE-STAGEThe 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.

ROTOCUT CHAMPION

ROTOCUT CHAMPIONThe 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. For the very same designer search new is the way of athletic perfection, which is especially important for the future of aeronautical engineer (today Igor is a student of Moscow aviation Institute). I guess this is a good example for our young readers.
