World of models
TWIN-ENGINE ELECTROLET
Flying cord “pilotage” — a beautiful sight, equally exciting for the athletes and spectators. Accordingly, among modelers-korovikov the number of adherents of flying is very high. And it could be much higher if not for problems with model aircraft engines. A small resource of internal combustion engines, the difficulty of obtaining fuel mixture, difficulty starting (especially in winter) — all of this contributes to the popularity of cord models with internal combustion engines in General and flight in particular.

“PIPER”: A CONTOUR COPY
Competitions of different rank showed that as prototypes for the manufacture of contour models are used only a dozen types of aircraft. And to participate our aeromodelling circle in the next competition, it was decided to make a model rare prototype. Our choice fell on PIPER CAB, one of the most successful light aircraft, produced in mass quantities since the pre-war (1935).
THE WAY TO “EAST”
The subject of today’s article – geophysical rocket R-2A. In previous publications we described in detail the technology of making copies of R-1 and R-2. The same technology used to create the model of R-2A. Will not be superfluous once more to tell for those who have not read those numbers.
THE WAY TO “EAST”
Model-a copy of the ballistic missile R-2
In 1951, took arms ballistic missile R-2 (product 8Ж38), created under the leadership of S. P. Korolev. Its performance characteristics were: missile launch weight of 20 to 300 kg, the maximum flight range is 576 km, mass of warhead – more than 1000 kg. R-2 to improve accuracy in lateral direction had a system of the frequency control with two antennas on the body, weight an untucked missiles – 4430 kg.
RC “TRAINER”
Simple, easily repaired, volatile, inexpensive… That’s only part of the requirements for training RC model aircraft. These requirements are fully satisfied “Trainer-RC” — RC plane engine with a working volume of 6.5 cm3 type of MDS or 0.S.MAX-40LA.
BATTLESHIPS OF ASSYRIA
It is no accident XII-IX century BC historians call the “dark ages”. During this period, the tribes inhabiting the Northern and Eastern coast of the Mediterranean sea, meeting face-to-face, marked the beginning of numerous clashes peoples. Ancient States were dissolved in the mass of the conquerors, and the free lands of the new colony. Art, and knowledge fell into decay, was perfected as a weapon. In the center of these events was Phoenicia, a city which has turned into a different camp. But not only the fear carried with them the conquerors, has never had the Phoenicians faced with a variety of designs and decoration of ships that washed up on their shores. This was the impetus for the development of shipbuilding. In the main shipyard in the Middle East actively adopt foreign experience, adapted it to new conditions.
THE LAUNCH OF THE MARCHES!
Throwing model-polyopia su-24. The model is designed and manufactured in the laboratory aeromodelling Center for children and youth technical creativity of the city of Rybinsk for novice modelers. The prototype has become a modern supersonic bomber with variable geometry (sweep) of the wing su-24, standing in service with the Russian air force. The launch of such models always generate interest among club members, and spectators. And thanks to the simplicity of manufacturing the model of this jet was a great success at the country children’s centres.
