  • Sailplane & Towplane Scale Model Kits

    Sailplane & Towplane Scale Model Kits

    Sailplane & Towplane Advice You Can Trust Awesome Support Scale Model Kits Great Products February, 2011 Overview I have long been a fan of scale sailplane models. A nice sailplane model, like any work of art, is enjoyable to look at. Sailplanes are certainly elegant and efficient machines. When I look at a sailplane model, I see the lovely long wings, and the purpose built aerodynamically optimized fuselage, but I also see the history of that particular sailplane. Every sailplane type has an interesting history. There was a person, or group of people, or company that put their hearts and minds into the development of that particular sailplane. It may have been the descendent of many, similar (or quite different) sailplanes in a long line of sailplanes. I see all that when I look at a scale model sailplane. I also see the potential for adventures to come. I see the cross‐country soaring flights that await me in the future. I guess I’m passionate about sailplanes and sailplane models. You will notice that when you visit my Scale Models web pages. I have spent a lot of time documenting each model kit. There are photos of the model parts, a scan of every page of the assembly instructions, photos of finished model kits and photos of the full‐size sailplanes the model is patterned after. You will also find historical information about the sailplane type. I try to add value with model building and terminology tips and links to web sites with tips on building scale models. 1:32 Scale, Plastic Injection Molded, The largest, most detailed and best 1:32 and 1:48 Scale, Resin, Very Nice, Larger than most other kits Paul Remde • [email protected] • www.cumulus‐soaring.com • 1‐952‐445‐9033 • Minnesota, USA Page 1 of 4 1:48 Scale, Resin, Very Nice, Larger than most other kits 1:48 Scale, Resin, Nice, For experienced modelers 1:72 Scale, Plastic Injection Molded, Very small but very nice, Easy to build A Great Way to Promote Soaring Sailplane models are more than just fun to look at.

    Making Dioramas The Tawhiti Museum uses many models in its displays – from ‘life-size’ fi gures, the size of real people – right down to tiny fi gures about 20mm tall - with several other sizes in between these two. Why are different sizes used? To answer this, look at the Turuturu Mokai Pa model. The fi gures and buildings are very small. If we had used life-size fi gures and buildings the model would be enormous, bigger than the museum in fact –covering several hectares! So to make a model that can easily fi t into a room of the museum we choose a scale that we can reduce the actual size by and build the model to that scale – in the case of the Turuturu Mokai Pa model the scale is 1 to 90 (written as 1:90) – that means the model is one ninetieth of real size – or to put it another way, if you multiply anything on the model by 90, you will know how big the original is. A human fi gure on the model is 20mm – if you multiply that by 90 you get 1800mm - the height of a full size person. So as the modeler builds the model, by measuring anything from life (or otherwise knowing its size) and dividing by 90 he knows how big to model that item – this means the model is an accurate scale model of the original – there is no ‘guess work’. How do we choose which scale to make a model? There are three main considerations: 1) How much room do we have available for the display? Clearly the fi nished model needs to fi t into the available space in the museum, so by selecting an appropriate scale we can determine the actual size of the model.

    PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE THIS BOOK FROM GALLERY fi/weenfs SI\IOW __ FLAKE §T.PAUL WII\ITER CARI\IIVAL Ig7B LEGEND OF THE WINTER CARNIVAL A long, long time ago, Astraios, the god of Starlight, and Eos , goddess of the Rosy Fingered Morn , were wed. The union was ble ssed with four sons: Titan , Euros, Zephyrus and Notos. Boreas , King of the Winds , aSSigned to each brother a permanent grant of great force and power. • To Titan was assigned the blustery North Wind. • To Euros was granted control of the irresponsible East Wind. • To Zephyru'i was given custody of the bountiful West Wind . • To Notos was presented the balmy South Wind . The brothers cavorted gaily over land and sea. Borea s, while on his extensive travels, came upon a winter paradise known as Minnesota. He paused to beh old the enchanting beauty of a magnificent group of seven gen tly sloping hills in whose embrace nestled a beautiful city . Boreas whistled in sheer ecstasy , " Historic Saint Paul and her seven hillsl An ideal place . I will make Saint Paul the ca pital of all my domain s. It wi ll henceforth be emblaz oned to the world as the winter playground of the realm of Boreas ." Meanwhile, Vulcanus, the god of Fire and implac able enemy of Boreas , crackled in defiant distain. " By the great sword of Mars I will temper the blusterings of Boreas with the heat and roar of my forces. " He was tireless in his bitter resistance to all the festivities of Boreas. Undaunted , Boreas proclaimed a celebration in the spirit of gay Carnival .
