Description
Ever wished you could build a self-moving racecar without the use of a battery or motor engine? Well, now you can with this air-powered racing vehicle. Carefully follow the fairly simple steps in the instruction guide on how to construct the car. After construction is complete, just pump the car full of air, and then let it fly! The powered car runs off of air force alone, and can race across any smooth, safe terrain. The car will not run properly on rough surface areas such as gravel, carpet, or grass. Racers are encouraged to experiment with the laws of physics, by adjusting the air pressure and wheels to see the effects of variations with this STEM project.
Publisher's Description of Air Power Racer V2
In 2015, OWI produced the award-winning Air Power Racer. While most scientists would rest with satisfaction knowing they have created a hit, OWI scientists knew they could do more. After four years of hard work and minor tweaks, the Air Power Racer v2is ready to hit the streets! This 15-piece kit will provide hours of fun as its loud engineroooaaarzzzzup and down race tracks designed by children ages six and up. Like the original, theAir Power Racer v2also runs on compressed air, but one fundamental change made in the lab was the removal of the onboard air pumping device. With this bulky equipment removed from the body, our scientists were able to reduce the weight of the vehicle more than 66%! One may ponder, "why make the vehicle lighter?"... For speed, of course! With the lighter frame and aerodynamics inspired by rocket cars, the Air Power Racer v2can achieve speeds up to 42% faster than the original all while using the same free fuel... Air. Not only did OWI's team of scientists make improvements to the Air Power Racer v2'sperformance, they also improved the price tag, reducing the suggested retail price OVER 28%! Take a bow OWI scientists; you've outdone yourselves.
