GIANT FROM ITALY

GIANT OF ITALYRC model airplane, provided in this publication, it is highly unusual for the national school of design. First of all it is established in accordance with more and more of the fashion for Maxi models (it is appropriate to recall that the rules of competitions of the International Federation of air sports is not the first year there is a subclass supermystery models). In addition, its overall design matches popular today modelers orientation on the old стиль1 when models are more like genuine planes 30 years, rather than a pure sports “shells”.

ONCE AGAIN, THE “PISTONE”

ONCE MORE ABOUT THE

Article V. Minakova, “Secrets of the new “piston”, published in the “Modeller-designer”, No. 12 1994, aroused great interest among rocketmodeler. It is available for the first time in a popular form expounded basic principles of development and manufacture of gas-dynamic starting unit (GDU).Today we can offer the attention of randomdevice the research summary starts with DGG athletes from the Chelyabinsk region. This report contains calculations of the dynamics of the acceleration of model rockets weighing 230-290 g engines with a total impulse of 20 to 40 N – S. the Authors first examine the effect of parameters where the speed of descent of the model. And the practical value of this material is that the results of the lengthy calculations are given in easy-to-use form.

TRANSATLANTIK IN MINIATURE

TRANSATLANTICA prototype of the proposed model-polyopia was a unique motor speed the ship Des-triero. Built by Italian club “Costa Smeraldo”, it was intended for a single purpose — to beat the speed record for transatlantic crossing, owned since 1990 no less unique boat Hoverspeed Great Britain. Great work on designing and developing unique vessel was done by the Italians with success: Destriero has passed the way from England to new York in 58 hours 34 minutes and 50 seconds, thus putting a new world record.

MODE WIG

IN A WIGRead in the “Modeller-designer” interesting article on the new generation car with aerobrigada, the boys from the circle, which I direct, has decided to develop the proposed innovation. Its essence was the transfer stabilizatory plate from the zone of slipstream in close proximity to the track surface of the track, where the model moves at a high speed must manifest the aerodynamic ground effect. Although models that are built in our group, has repeatedly won prizes in on competitions and seemed to be brought to constructive and technological excellence, yet wanted to try something new.

UNUSUAL “BOUZOUKI”

UNUSUAL It would seem that all has been investigated in this technically simple class of models, as F2D (combat model aircraft). But no, from time to time there are new developments designed to bring to perfection, if not the entire structure of the apparatus as a whole, at least the main nodes. Today we bring to the athletes is very innovative solution to this important hub, as the wing tip. If other aeromodelling classes when rendering first tackle the issues of aerodynamics, the “bouzouki” is much more important than their minimal weight and the ability to effectively combine the front and rear of the power zone of the frame together. The latter factor is important not only in extreme situations. At the same time provided a good connecting construction of the said belts, and wingtips will be significantly easier and the whole power structure as a whole.

UNDER THE “PARASOL”

SCHEME Despite the popularity of radio controlled model airplanes-srednevekov, the attention of designers-modelers often drawn to the now obsolete scheme. And this is understandable — after all, the “big” aviation, such machines include a spectacular cabin aircraft, starting with the domestic Yak-12 and ending with dozens of options American Cessna.

CORD SKATER

CORD SKATERThis cord pilotage has an excellent management system and has excellent maneuverability, which allows it to perform the most complex maneuvers. And most importantly – it never loses connection with the pilot due to robust tension cord at any point of the flight hemisphere. The design of this model is quite original and in many ways not consistent with accepted standards. In order to design such models, it is useful to get acquainted with the principles of determination of main parameters cord pilotage.

“SCHEMATICA” CLASS B1

Proponents of class rezinomotornaya expense of building a traditional model B1, do not turn the page of the magazine, seeing the drawings of equipment, by the external signs relating to the child “schematical”! Overcome the neglect of long ago you passed the scheme and read the material. You may find many interesting things.

IN FLIGHT THE AIRPLANE HAD

IN-FLIGHT LOWIntroducing radio controlled model aircraft for training flights. The prototype was popular among modelers from different countries models “Corkscrew” (Corkscrew) is an American athlete Stuart L. Richmond. The appearance in the sale of grooved balsa plates and rails (at least in specialised stores) as well as excellent flight performance and simplicity of execution “Corkscrew” became the incentive to further improve the original scheme.

ROUTE “MAZDA”

TRACE Despite market saturation, radio-controlled car and their simplistic and relatively cheap likes — RC avtokraski, EN-route kits are all also attract the attention of fans of sports automodelisme. I must say that the model market offers a lot of interesting tracks for: here and small motors with samarium-cobalt magnets that develop a power of 100 watts, and painted the inside of the one-piece shell-the housing of Iksanova film, and even finished chassis of various designs. However, the desire to make a completely homemade design is truly indestructible. The more that the advantages of such models include their relative simplicity, speed of production, and with the use of very simple equipment — literally “on the knee”.
