POWERplus Roadrunner Solar Car STEM Kit
Build Your Own Solar Car
The POWERplus Junior Roadrunner is a DIY STEM construction kit that allows children to build a simple working solar car. With around 20 parts, it offers a quick and engaging building experience.
Solar Powered Motion
The car operates using a built-in solar panel that converts sunlight into electrical energy. This energy powers a small motor, which drives the wheels and sets the vehicle in motion.
How the Model Works
When placed in direct sunlight, the photovoltaic panel generates electricity that flows to the motor. The motor transfers motion through a gear system to move the car forward.
