How To Make A Model Launch
(This is the third ot a series of articles on how to make a model launch, by Modelmaker, of 1YA Auckland Children’s Hout.) HIS article deals with the metal parts and the installation of the machinery of the model launch. Above are the drawings of the various metal parts that do not stand out clearly on the plans, owing to the small size they had to be drawn. They are not drawn to scale, as some must of necessity be larger and others smaller than they really are. Here is the key to the first diagram: . : A. Propeller shaft. B. Bearing, fastened to shaft. C. Propeller shaft tube.
The position of the motor batteries and switch depend a great deal on the size and type of the motor. Their positions are given approximately on the plan and elevation of the model, which appeared in The Listener last week.
