The AIRBOAT

AIRBOATRC model aerolaser (Fig. 1) easy to manufacture, and it does not require scarce materials. Do this even for a Modeler with a little experience, and so the airboat could become a learning model figure chart. This boat great sailing qualities: it handles well, quickly leaves on glissirovanie, stable moves for all evolutions, sufficiently stable. Even with a strong gusty wind model but out of control.

The body of the glider is cut from a single piece of epoxy or glued together from several pieces of foam of any brand. Ready housing is definitely sanded, covered with a layer of epoxy putty and painted with any paint except oil. The theoretical contours of the hull shown in figure 2. In the upper part of the housing has a removable cover that opens free access to hardware control. The connector between the housing and the cover is enhanced by a lining of sheet duralumin D16T with a cut in it, and then bent stabilizing rudders.
The power plant consists of motor of internal combustion with a working volume of 2.5 cm3, for example, MK-12V. Fuel tank volume of about 50 cm3. Frame under the engine is bent from sheet duralumin Д1ЗТ. At the top of it is enhanced by a plywood strip with a thickness of 7 mm, to which is attached the engine, tank and the top node of the suspension of the keel. The latter has also a lower swivel mounted on the power strip enclosure (Fig. 3).

For radio they say;em to be used the equipment of domestic production “Suprana-838”. Thus, only one radio channel for normal control — it transmits a command for steering the machine aerolizer. Equipment radio (power supply, receiver, servo) are placed on the body. Receiver antenna — pin wire OVS Ø 1 mm, mounted on the highest point of the building.
