WINGED HYDROPLANE

Speed radioact with a sail-wingSpeed radioact with a sail-wing. Competitions of radio controlled model yachts are one of the most exciting. Silent glide of sailboats on the smooth surface of the pond, clearly they can perform turns and maneuvers gives the audience the illusion of a real sailing regatta. And being a full sailing gear, becoming a member of these competitions, you just — you just take a radio controlled model yacht that is not too difficult, although the work is — for neat and patient.
The present model refers to the number of high-speed, which helps the body with not “yacht”, but rather with the “boat” lines and unusual sailing rig, formally consisting of a profiled mast and relatively small sail, which from the point of view of aerodynamics collectively represent a wing with a symmetrical profile, with flexible flap.

THE FIRST STEP IN KITING

THE FIRST STEP IN KITINGSerpent pilot-glider.The material world around us is continuously changing, enriching all new components, including emerging technical sports. Thus, only in the last decades there has been a Windsurfing and hang gliding, it has become habitual flights in motor gliders, in the snow more often there are fans monoskis-snowboard and young admirers skibord learned to fabricate on their skateboards that were unaccustomed to such a spectacle of man’s best just to squint.

ROCKET HAWK

ROCKET HAWKModels of this type have many times built by the guys from the mug space modeling of station of young technicians of the city of Elektrostal. They especially appreciate its “Hawk” because it is made from material in the public domain (Linden, pine, paper), and thus has good performance as in the active phase (engine running), and in gliding flight. Such “hawks” the club has participated in local and regional competitions.

“SNOWMOBILE” IN FIVE MINUTES

You can understand the burning desire of the baby who saw for the first time the competition modelers, asking parents to buy or make him a miniature technique, not postponing it for later when he grows up and goes to a club.
Propose a simple dynamic model will be able to help parents in a similar situation, because it forces to make yourself out of scrap materials, very quickly and most importantly with your child. In such cases the boys could evolve into a love for a fascinating and accessible in this age, the technical creativity — modeling.

YOUR FIRST INDOOR MODEL GLIDER

YOUR FIRST INDOOR MODEL GLIDERWatching how experienced modelers send in the flight record of the aircraft, one might wish to try their hand and make a small plane with his own hands. It passed through many generation of Amateur designers -making the simple model, was fond of a more complex apparatus, gradually improving his skills. Below we will explain how to build the simplest house model glider is in fact a toy that can be placed on the palm of your hand and try out in a normal city apartment. This is very useful because it does not put you on the weather, or your skill level. This glider can really become an adult and a student, having at hand the necessary minimum – a thin wooden stick, foam sheet thickness of 3 mm, a needle and thread and glue.

RECOVERY SYSTEM — “ROTOR”

SYSTEM OF SALVATION — Only four of the class includes one of the most “fresh” categories of model rockets — on the duration of the flight with the rotor — S9. The competition in this category will start only single-stage models, which utilize the principle of autorotation of the main rotor as the only way to “soft” landing on the ground. Autorotation should occur only along the longitudinal axis of the model and result in the erection and operation of the rotor.

AT THE START OF THE MODEL-COPY

AT THE START — MODEL-COPYVery often the students see on television or in a magazine, the launch of the spacecraft, have a vital interest in how this happens. If I could build such a rocket! And-models are very close to real rockets: same shape, only the size is much smaller.

-Models of missiles play a big role in aerospace education of youth. In the process of working on them, “the rocketeer” learn to read, match and draw up the technical documentation, get acquainted with history of creation and development of space-rocket techniques, study design missiles. At the same time, the process of learning the fundamentals of designing and manufacturing of individual components and the whole model. In this creative process, develop skills of solving technical problems, chief of which is the creation of a flying copy of the rocket.
