Hello all. Has any one got a diagram /training booklet on the stopwatch in the yak 52, apparently they are very good time pieces, can we get replacement units still?
Thanks brad

Hi Brad,
no problem to find these clocks, new or used. Just start Ebay or Google looking for Russian aircraft clocks or MIG clock .....
See the link for operation :

Brad,
Extracted this from the 20+ pages of YAK-52 pilot's system notes I've written up so far ... chronographs are good kit, but not simple!
Note there are two variants as per below.
Chronographs
=> АЧС-1 = second hand operates with clock, stopwatch sub-dial 60 minutes
=> АЧС-1M = second hand operates with stopwatch, stopwatch sub-dial 30 minutes
=> mechanical Chronograph fitted with a heating element for very cold conditions
=> Pitot Heat switch controls the clock heater - although most have been disabled
=> performs a conventional Clock function as well as a Stopwatch and an Hour Recorder
=> outer scale is the main Clock & single sweep second hand
=> upper sub-dial is the Hour Recorder (HR) and the lower sub-dial is the Stopwatch function
=> two knobs are mounted to the outer bezel;
Left function knob
=> normal position (IN) winds the mechanism
=> pull OUT & rotate hands to set time on Clock
=> push IN to change the ‘setting selection’ – interlink between Clock & Hour Recorder
=> each push moves a flag in the Hour Recorder dial - alternates Red, Red / White and White
=> corresponds to ‘Set Clock & HR’, ‘Set Clock, Stop HR’ & ‘Set Clock, Reset HR’
Right function knob
=> turn counter-clockwise to run mechanism, clockwise to stop
=> push knob to cycle Stopwatch function: Start – Stop – Reset
Using the Chronograph
=> Right knob turn clockwise - ensure mechanism stopped
=> Left knob - wind mechanism spring until it begins to tighten
=> Left knob - push knob IN until White flag shows, pull OUT to set the correct time & push back IN
=> Red Flag - the White flag is replaced with Red flag indicating system fully engaged
# turn Right knob counter-clockwise to run the Clock and the Hour Recorder
# Stopwatch functions (push right knob IN) available
=> Red / White Flag – appears on second push IN of Left knob
# Hour Recorder stopped, main clock continues
# Stopwatch functions still available
=> White Flag – appears on third push IN of Left knob
# Hour Recorder reset, main clock continues
# Stopwatch functions still available
Hope this helps.
Brgds, Rob R

Vic.
I just have to ask, what is that beautiful auto you have the Russian time piece mounted in?

Hi Coop,
this MIG clock lives in a 3.8 Jag E-Type Coupé. We found the clock at 50 dollars in an autojumble in Munich in 1993 when the Iron Wall was down and loads of great eastern products were converted to western currency by "private exporters". Many years later we found another MIG clock but this time the price was considerably higher, definitely. The owner would only give it away in a set. So we accepted the Yak to go with it.
Cheers
Vic

You are one smart trader. Great set. And your E-Type is magnificent.
