ABOUT
R.H. Warring's book written for young modellers but packed with solid technical substance.
It explores a wide range of power sources—rubber, small internal combustion engines, electric motors, and even simple steam and clockwork mechanisms—showing how each can be harnessed to drive practical, well designed models.
Warring explains construction techniques for aircraft, boats, and land vehicles, always emphasising straightforward methods, accessible materials, and reliable performance.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images, drawings and diagrams.
