Book Description
In 1987, the first Mini-Z models came onto the market, small remote-controlled car models for racing fun (not only) in your own living room. Since then, the mini-RC cars in 1:24 scale and smaller, especially as ready-to-run models, have offered an inexpensive entry into sophisticated car modelling. In this book, Hans-Peter Sollik presents five selected models, from monster trucks to Formula 1 racers, showing the construction and possible uses of these smart RC cars. What is included in the usual scope of delivery, which motor, and chassis equipment can be considered, which battery technology and which remote control components, are described by the author as well as the wide range of optical and technical improvements: tuning. Anyone who wants to get to know RC car modelling and gain initial experience with miniature models, perhaps in order to switch to larger scales later, will find the right instructions in this book.

Book Description
This book is the first comprehensive history of how the 1:1200 scale and its 1:1250 continental equivalent became accepted as the modern standard for miniature ship models. The origins can be traced back to the first years of the twentieth century and their use as identification aids by the military during the First World War, but when peace came the manufacturers aimed their increasingly sophisticated products at collectors, and acquiring, modifying or scratch-building miniature ship models has been an avidly pursued hobby ever since. This book charts the commercial rise and fall of the manufacturers, and the advancing technology that produces ever more detailed and accurate replicas. The author - himself a lifetime collector and builder of models - looks at the products of each manufacturer, past and present, rating their quality and suggesting why some are regarded as more collectible than others. But the book deals with more than off-the-shelf models, covering subsidiary issues like painting, modifying and diorama settings, and is illustrated throughout with many of the finest examples of the genre. The combination of fascinating background information with stunning visual presentation will make this book irresistible to any collector or enthusiast.
