- By building five awesome models and conducting experiments with them, you will learn how solar cells transform light into electrical energy, and how motors and mechanical devices can optimize the work done by this energy
- Experiment with motors, gears, and simple machines
- Start with a simple helicopter model that converts sunlight into a rotating motion and demonstrates the basics of solar technology
- Continue your experiments by constructing increasingly complex models: a solar-bot, a moon rover, and a stag beetle
- Finally, build a cool praying mantis model that moves like an insect and is powered by a solar cell
- models can also be powered by a battery, allowing operation in all lighting conditions
- Building pieces in this set are compatible other Thames & Kosmos Physics Series and Engineering Series kits
- Assemble 5 models & 10 experiments including: a helicopter, solar-bot, moon rover, stag beetle, and praying mantis
- Kit contains: 142 pieces, and 48 page color instruction book
- Requires: 2 rechargeable batteries (sold separately)
- Ages: 8-Up
