(THE BUILD-POLYOPIA). Building the model-polyopia begin with the manufacture of the fuselage (Fig. 1), the contours of the lateral projection should most accurately reflect the similarity with the copied aircraft. To the fuselage structure demands maximum strength with minimum weight. The greatest difficulty in its manufacture is the reduction in the weight of the tail, which is much longer than the front, So it makes truss.
The model, which will be discussed in this article warmed the soul to generations of young sailors. In the distant postwar years, and even in the sixties, such a boat could be found on store shelves. From many toy counterparts his distinguished acting steam engine in the bilge – in the furnace was burning real flame to heat up and boil water in a small steam boiler, humming quietly, pushing the boat forward, two small jet of thin tubes. On a boat it was impossible to look without admiration – he was so real! And easy the soot from the burnt fuel on the surface of the cutting gave this amazing little machine is truly a “combat” look. The greatest effect was achieved in the twilight, when at full speed in the Windows of the wheelhouse, it was possible to observe the flickering glare of the flame.
One of the most critical components of the machines crawler — tanks, all-terrain vehicles, armored personnel carriers, tractors, trucks is the suspension, particularly caterpillars. Their tapes, as you know, is assembled from separate parts — the tracks connected by fingers. Each track has a grooved surface — lugs deliver reliable traction. On the side of the track facing the rollers, is guide comb, preventing a descent of rollers with treadmill tracks the motion of the model, especially during turns.
We offer proven our ship mug method: to make propellers with electric current from foam. Simple device allows you to quickly produce a series of identical screws, which in appearance is no different from bronze, but do not sink in water.
Several years ago I came across a photograph of an unfamiliar race car. Machine interested, but no additional information about the photo caption does not contain, and the search for them has long remained unsuccessful. But once the case got me with one of the designers of this car. With the help of the necessary information about the car focused on my desktop and now I can offer to the hobby to make it the trace option.
Readers already familiar with the workings of the Chisinau children’s club “Firefly” of the Ministry of Moldova. Last year, the “M-K” printed drawings, model air combat “Firefly”. This simple, durable and unpretentious bouzouki like many beginning modelers, as we judged by the numerous sent to our club e-mails.
Hand drill — the same one that we, the modelers, and then put out for winding the rubber motor, — not the best fixture. She’s heavy, and bulky. Much more convenient to use for this purpose spinning reel from spinning. Refinement not present any difficulties, but the benefits are undeniable: a lightweight, portable, reliable, and, Read more…
It was called hydrocardon, although it is more like a kind of water motorcycle. Built is sports microsode the Donetsk regional station of young technicians in the circle of “Small shipbuilding.” As reported in the editorial of the Director of the station N. Vladimir Vasilyev, the club celebrates this year its fifteenth anniversary. Initially, in the classroom young engineers studied the structure and purpose of a variety of sports and pleasure craft, have developed a new design .mostly motor boats. The work aroused great interest guys, but I felt that something still was missing. It soon became clear that the young “shipbuilders” I wanted not only to create a motor court, but also to experience them and more — to compete: whose machine was faster, so, technically perfect.
RC model-polyopia motor. Motors together with batteries increasingly gaining ground in the modeling. Today, the growing power motors and improved battery options allow you to create a comprehensive, well-flying model aircraft, including radio controlled.
The attention of many modelers are attracted to the photos (“M-K”, No. 10, 1979) on the international competition teams of the socialist countries on aviamodelling sports. The editors have received many letters with the request to give more details about the model of the winner of these competitions the master of sports of international class Anatoly Kolesnikov from Frunze.
