[History of some model].
This paper refers us to the mid-1960s, when mechanisms of the animal rhythmic activity were vividly discussed and the concept of "generator of rhythm" was formulated. Since at than time the device of the generator of rhythm was understood very poorly, V. Menshutkin, V. Svidersky, and A. Umnov, by the example of an insect (locust), attempted to develop the first mathematical model generating rhythm of the flight. Why the interest in such model arose, how it was created, and what the result of it was has been described in this paper.
