TIP & Info #
index

From LED decorations, something you've always wanted to try while making models, to how to make models move, this is Korea's first model electronics guidebook that guides you step-by-step!

Anyone who has ever made a model has always wanted the model they made to be better and stand out.
For the robot model, I want to try applying various lighting effects that I saw in the video, and for the fighter model, I want to make the propeller move or add engine flash effects.
Among them, LED work is one that can produce noticeable results even with simple work.
The model, decorated with LEDs that shine in various colors, has the charm to immediately catch the attention of even those who are not interested in models.
However, even if you really want to try LED decoration, it is not easy to find information such as how to turn on the LED, where to get the parts, and how to apply it to a model.

This book is Korea's first model electronics workbook that provides step-by-step guidance on how to apply basic electronics work to models in an easy-to-understand manner.
While existing books published overseas are not able to show the detailed production process, this book provides readers with essential information, including information on the parts used in each episode and where to purchase them, and is composed of detailed image data that shows each production process without omission, minimizing what readers may miss.
In addition, the author, a non-major, systematically organized the skills and knowledge he personally accumulated while enjoying electronic engineering as a hobby. Rather than a theoretical book full of complex calculations for experts, this book can be said to be a practical book that explains basic skills and methods with abundant photos and illustrations for readers who want to start electronic engineering as a hobby.
The electronic engineering knowledge introduced here is not limited to models and can be applied in various ways, so this book can be actively recommended not only for hobbies but also for various educational purposes that allow students to learn electronic engineering in a fun way.
