Solar Powered Racing Car Kit

Solar Powered Racing Car Kit

No more batteries; no more chargers. Just pure, bright sunshine will get this baby going. This sleek, little number is the epitome of solar powered cars, and at a dinky 21cm long, you won’t need to fork out for a garage. This is a DIY affair in which you’ll gain the experience of constructing a car from scratch. You’ll get to assemble the motor box and build the chassis, before making up the gearbox and affixing the wheels. Simply attach the solar panel once it’s finished, and you’re all ready to rip.

A racing car indeed, this model is one pretty speedy eco-vehicle. With the ability to reach an impressive 3 metres every second, it can also climb hills with an incline of 30 degrees or less. No more worrying about flimsy materials or possible breakages; you can put it through its paces without fretting that it’ll flag. It’s a great way for young ones to learn about renewable energy too, and figuring out the mechanics will have their curiosity peaked. If the sun does happen to hibernate - we all know Britain too well - then you won’t miss out on the fun: it’s as easy as flipping a switch on the chassis and an AA battery can perform when the weather won’t. Build it, charge it, and race it: easy.
