“Made without balsa? Then bad!” — is unexceptional opinion about aerobatic traditionally there is a perception among most athletes. Especially categorical estimate the model from the point of view of its material beginners — experienced only pilots first, to clarify, do not use fiberglass.Maybe you shouldn’t be so categorical in his judgments
only “dress for success”? Ultimately, all flight properties of the model do not depend on the used materials, the main thing — successful, from a design point of view, a well-designed power and aerodynamic configuration.
An example of this is the proposed flight, which can be collected even on the kitchen table from readily available materials.
Good modelers! Almost all of the many sports classes they have and the same subclass designed for students. Equipment from the “juniors” easier, more accessible, and to treat her in the competition much easier than with the “older” supermodels of today.
Long gone are the days when the construction of the RC was the prerogative of only experienced, cool modelers. Today, even the newbies that come to join the circle, to the question of what they would like to do, we always answer: “high-Speed RC”.
The first year guys of our circle are doing Svobodnoye. Young athletes usppi to accumulate a lot of experience in the construction of light-winged paritala different classes and their application in the competition. The only time “school” class engines working volume of 1.5 cm3 was DPJ us a kind of a stumbling block. What depot!
Regularly model airplanes-conovici come to the world Championships, to hundreds of athletes to identify the most strong, the most experienced craftsmen. Last year the venue was the Hungarian city of PECs. It was there that he developed air battles in the four most popular classes cord models — aerobatic, speed, racing and fighting. All four classes and in team and individual competition — confidently leading modelers of the USSR team. In the end, the gold medal of the FAI and the title of world Champions respectively, got A. Kolesnikov (Frunze), Kalmykov (Moscow), the crew Barkov — Suraev (Kharkov) and N. Necheukhin (Sverdlovsk).
In the “M-K” (No. 11, 1990) was described by the model of the strongest tracks. However, the production of such equipment is not available to everyone and is quite expensive. And what do the athletes do not have much experience, and beginners in the club? For them it is proposed to develop a model of THE class-2 modern design, but runs out of available materials and without using complicated technologies.
Without the engine the model doesn’t fly. But to rely on the ice today is not necessary: the mass of the motors is just terrible. You can, of course, many years ago, to do “resinator” but now this model guys inspire difficult. Meanwhile, there is the engine, capable of becoming the progenitor of a range of models for beginners air (though why not a car or ship) modelers. This is a pneumatic engine, working on liquefied carbon dioxide WITH2. It has a quite satisfactory capacity to fill it is easy, fuel is not harmful to children. Today in the Moscow city station of young technicians developed several types of models for competition of Junior high school students and first control line racing, Svobodnaya the replica model and timer model airplane. Today we introduce readers to “M-K” with “timerkey”, which showed very good results in numerous experimental runs.
In the “M-K” No. 4, 1984, an article was published about the use of modular monoblock with rubber motor sports boat. Over time the scheme not only fully justified, but has evolved into an electric version of the modular drive. It should be noted that with the same size seats remains a possibility at any time to return to rezinomotornaya. Development has passed severe tests, not only in training: with electric monoblock model was “RAID boat”, became the winner of the championship of Moscow among students.
…Model takes off from any position. It was enough to tighten the rubber motor, and two-winged “bird”, vigorously rebounding wings, began the rapid acceleration into the sky. She looked extremely simple. But the plainness of the shape did not prevent her from becoming the prototype of a family of similar vehicles with different engine types and power. They were United on one thing: almost all majority rose steadily skyward. The secret of them, probably, and was in its original simplicity, was originally a perfect Union, mass-inertial and aerodynamic forces…
First, the equipment management model. The use of well-proven systems of the type “Pilot”, “Start” or “RUM” is the only (unfortunately!) the opportunity to engage in sectarian terms radio-controlled model aircraft. They are characterized by functionality and a sufficient noise immunity, which can not be said about modern proportional systems available. Of course, digital is no longer considered “fashionable,” and start holders “Supernarrow” or “Navipromo” will look more professional. But… only as long as after a series of accidents model, they will not come to the conclusion that all the same old discrete is better “killer” is proportional to. Incidentally, this feature of proportionally could be used without quotation marks, if to remember, how many aircraft modeling technique, strength, enthusiasm and best creative time is really ditching because of the low reliability of available equipment (including a “Signal” from the GDR). And in favor of the simplest systems says 15-year experience trouble-free operation of radio in our circle.
