Description
Publisher's Description of Solar/Battery Top Fuel Dragster Kit
OWI's newest model of solar racing features not one, but two forms of power. The Solar/Battery Top Fuel Dragster, which gets its namesake from its long powerful dragster like frame (8.25"x3.25"x 3"), will be a fan favorite for years to come. Boys and Girls ages 8+ enjoy the challenge of building their very own dragster, and once the (30-piece) assembly is complete, they will have the option of racing their friends both indoors and outdoors! The Solar/Battery Top Fuel Dragster features a double XL solar panel that is strong enough to power the large frame on a sunny day. Run out of daylight, or it's not sunny outside? No problem! Switch the power source of the Solar/Battery Top Fuel Dragster to the single AA battery compartment (battery not included), and the fun will not have to end. We envision "Blue Ribbon" capabilities at your next Science Fair!
Category Description for Mini Solar Robot Kits
What's better than a beginner robotics kit that's entertaining, easy-to-do, and requires no batteries? I fell in love with these kits at a trade show. The completed models stood in trays, and when a halogen light was held over them, the frightened grasshopper "chittered" along, the frog hopped, and the super solar racing car would have been off the table and away down the aisle if it wasn't contained! The newest addition to this series is the Flapping Sea Gull which attaches to your window with a suction cup so you can watch it "fly." Kits contain all pieces needed to assemble them (no tools or batteries required!), including small solar panels. They can be assembled in an hour or two, and when complete can be placed in the sun for instant fun. Watch out though, that car is fast. -Jess
