A small build-it-yourself solar car: a moulded plastic chassis, four wheels, a mini DC motor with a belt drive to the rear axle, and a solar cell on the deck. There are no batteries and no switch - put it in the sun and it runs, move it into shade and it stops, which is exactly what makes it a good way to show children where the energy is coming from. A short, satisfying assembly for a classroom or a rainy afternoon.
Key features
- Runs on sunlight alone - no batteries
- Self-assembly: chassis, wheels, motor and panel
- Belt drive from a mini DC motor to the rear axle
- Stops in shade, runs in sun - the lesson builds itself
- Good classroom and science-fair STEM project
- Small and light, about the size of a matchbox car
