IN THE AIR “SCHEMATICA”

IN THE AIR Elegant appearance, ease of fabrication, lack in construction materials in short supply, good flight characteristics are qualities that distinguish a schematic model of the airframe designed in the laboratory of aviation technology rut of Kazakhstan. Such models young Almaty residents repeatedly became winners of various competitions. Maximum results in all rounds is not uncommon when using the proposed “schematicity”. And flight characteristics of the glider was so high that it had to be equipped with a matchlock device forced landing. Without it, many models disappeared in terms.

THE TRACK ON THE TABLE…

ASSEMBLY ON THE TABLE...Performance with external power supply grade E-2 is very popular with beginners — they are not too complicated for their production does not require scarce batteries, electric motors and materials. Odkako for debugging such models it is desirable to have at hand a track : after all, every improvement micromachine aimed at the growth of its speed, should promptly be evaluated by the designer in order to proceed to the next stage of modernization.

“NIKE KEYGEN” IN MINIATURE

With the introduction of new technical requirements to models-copies category S5 most preferred as a prototype steel two-stage rocket with large differences in diameters of the housings of the steps. This requirement well enough to answer the research rocket developed in the US on the basis of the accelerator anti-aircraft missiles “Nike” (“Nike-Tomogavk”, “Nike-Keygen”, “Nike-Apache” and others).

SLEIGH KMD-2,5

SLEIGH KMD-2,5A number of recent publications in “M-K” on the cord design racing cars and snowmobiles helped us in creating equipment and more heavy class — under the engine working volume of 2.5 cm3. Despite the fact that the published information has mostly referred to “trucks”, most of nodal solutions have been shown to be beneficial in the classroom as-2 and AM-2. Sharp weight reduction and a simultaneous simplification of the circuit and process of manufacture, the almost total absence of metal and processed by machines details helps aeromarine with “paper” beam and a kind of motor mount on three points and remain leaders in technology, accessibility of buildings and possibilities of achievement of high sports results.

BOAT-PRAMOD

BOAT-PRAMODThe problem of choice of the first model arises not only to beginners but to the heads of circles: what computers have to offer first came to class? After all, you need to choose one that is not so difficult to build and which will not test the patience of the young shipbuilder of his “mnogozadachnosti”. But the model should have good performance, not to stay in last place in the competition, and appearance as close as possible to this ship. All the required qualities have proposed a model-“Pramod” class EX-500 (polyopia length up to 500 mm). Its able to build even a novice athlete, working independently, without the help of the instructor.

UNUSUAL GIFT

UNUSUAL GIFTIt’s a letter to the editor. In it two leaves of sketches on the reverse side of which a short description and a few photos of the model. No return address, no signature of the author. What is it? The mystery still remains unresolved. But one thing is clear — sent material about Cordovan Aero glider will be important for athletes, both young and experienced. Proof the experts say to any of the claims from an engineering point of view is not the “fault” — all the calculations are justified! The editors decided to publish the anonymous letter. Because navarana if not the overall scheme, at least part of the individual decisions will the creators of sports technine tomorrow. We can only thank the stranger who made such an unusual gift to readers-modelers. So, we give this letter.
