Originally published in 1916
this book has some of the most interesting ideas for
motors for model aeroplanes I have ever seen.
Included are: compressed-air
motors; gas motors and steam
power along with the more typical power
plants of early model aviation..
A history of model aviation with
world record models and a dictionary of aeronautical
terms. Building the consituent parts of the model
including a rubber band winder are also covered.
Some of the most interesting models
are the flying boats which are covered in detail
with diagrams of their construction.

book is illustrated with photos, drawings, diagrams
and model plans. $12.95
