THE MAIN THING — SPEED

THE MAIN THING IS SPEEDSlowly, but steadily moved to the highest step of the podium, the master of sports of the USSR from the city of Tambov Yuri Remic. In the past, the renowned designer of flying models, he now received, as we think that “permanent residence” in self-similar sports. Extensive experience acquired in the model aircraft competition, the jury has been successfully used during the self-similar battles with high standard. He is a permanent member of the national team of the RSFSR. In its composition has repeatedly been the winner and the winner of the national Championships. For a lot of sporting success included in a national team of the USSR, one of the strongest in Europe.

THE MOTOR ON THE SOARING LEADER

MOTOR ON THE SOARING LEADERGlider with motor Speed-600. With the development of gliding enthusiasts of this type of aircraft have sought to combine the merits of soaring flight and motor. The fact that non-motorized glider under favorable conditions, although it may stay in the air for dozens of hours flying during this time hundreds of kilometers, however, the vagaries of the weather can at any time force it to land in most unsuitable place for it.

FLYING “COACH”

FLYING Training control line model aircraft. This cord model training, as well as for Antonov an-designer, and for the Antonov an-pilot. The Creator will have to master the classical technology of manufacture and Assembly of the aircraft, and the pilot is to learn how to control it without fear of careless crop to decompose a model into its constituent elements.

Electrical twin-engined

Electrical twin-enginedIncreasingly, 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.

“ZHIGULI” — THE LAYOUT AND MODEL

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.

FOR COMBAT AND AEROBATICS

FOR COMBAT AND AEROBATICSUniversal control line model aircraft. The design “Teardrop” models for air combat — have occurred in several stages. In fact, immediately, in one step to create obedient to the pilot model was not possible, believe me, anybody. As a rule, first designed and built a simplified model, which practiced its concept, geometric parameters, the controllability and stability of the flight. Further, according to the results of test flights made necessary modifications, and then creates a second version of the model in which the basis is all the best from the first. Sometimes the model is good, but often for the second stage follows the third…
