World of models

All conscious life Vladimir Menshikov associated with the sky. In his childhood he built flying model airplanes. Hence the choice of a profession. And as a matter of course, flying school. The profession of pilot in the way to heaven is opened. More than 20 years, the cockpit of a helicopter—his main place of work, and the wheel—tool. But don’t forget Vladimir and the children’s hobby is modeling. Designed model, but now missiles. What I remember Volodya (as our longtime friendship can call it so), it has always featured the true, the desire to make new, more interesting than others. So, in 1982, he first adapted for remote control launch model rockets fragment of the control stick helicopter (its upper part).

“I suggest, I have developed a method of manufacturing a wing for a model aircraft, — says the head of the aeromodelling circle in the House of pioneers of the city of Serebryansk Anatoly Wainilowicz. The device that you need for this easy and beginner model airplanes”.

Aerobatics cord models is equally good as sport, as a fun hobby. It is not surprising that interest in this type of modeling remains in the world until now, not to say followers of radiopilot. Design cord models evolving, gaining new and new features. Today, we give drawings and a description of the car created in accordance with the latest requirements of flight “fashion”.

New technology for the manufacture of model airplanes, primenyal the modelers of the GDR from the city of Erfurt, the magazine introduces readers to No. 6 in 1977. Today we tell about the well-proven original management system stabilizers models of gliders. I hope that the Soviet model airplanes with interest acquainted with the design of the control mechanism and get it on “weapons” in their practice.

In 1935, in the Reactive section of the CA osoaviahima of the USSR designer A. I. Polar was designed and built experimental rocket. Originally it was called “Osoaviakhim” (R-1). Subsequently, she was given the index R-06. Only manufactured ten of these missiles. After extensive bench and flight tests, during which were worked out the engine and other systems of the missiles, it August 25, 1937 was the official flight tests.

This will meet not often. I must say that in my memory this is the first time Both champion’s in one class (S6F) among boys and among adults the same team—Poland. But that’s not all. They— Michal Kumar and Leshik Malaga—student and coach. This creative community can only rejoice.

Booster “Diamond-A” in November 1965 into orbit the first French artificial satellite of the Earth. France became the third space power. Length of the rocket “Diamond-A” is about 19 m, launch weight of about 18 tons, the maximum diameter of almost 1.5 m. a Further development of missiles of this series was a three-stage, cross-division stages, the more powerful the rocket “Diamond-In”. Her starting weight of 24 tons, the length of 23.54 m and a maximum diameter of 1.4 m. It is designed to launch communications, navigation, meteorological and other instrumentation.

Baikonur is rightly considered the cradle of rocket and space technology. Go out in the space provided earth satellites, orbital stations and space ships to explore the uncharted expanses of the Universe.

Modelers or hams sometimes need to make the blinds. For example, for the bonnets of models-copies of planes or metal housings radiokonstruktor. Offer a simple way perform in the home workshop lamellar louver made of sheet aluminum or steel.

Not often, but sometimes: spin rubber motor on the model, and suddenly it breaks. And it brings a lot of trouble. However, more recently, the fuselage of this “accident” is not suffering — its the working part on rezinomotornaya model aircraft are now in the form of a solid tube made of aluminum or fiberglass. But the propeller is still defenseless. Devices used to protect it from breakage, disks or rectangular plates of sheet aluminum not withstand strong impact. In addition, they are massive and awkward to use.
