Thames & Kosmos Wind Power 2.0
Build wind generators charge batteries that are rechargeable and to energize your electric vehicles. The wind will blow the turbine and drive an electric generator to charge your rechargeable AA batteries (not included). After that, you can use those wind charged batteries to power the vehicles which you construct. The six models include the race car, sail car, jet car, tractor, a glider, and tricycle. This kit includes two different styles of wind turbine blades and a gearbox includes three different gear ratios for experimentation. You may adjust the angle and variety of wind turbine blades to make the best use of the wind brilliantly to charge the rechargeable battery. Check this free supply of renewable power and store the energy that you generate for use in technical applications. There are one 40-page color instruction book and 133 building pieces.
Thames & Kosmos Air + Water Power
Build your own versions powered by air and water pressure to learn about the laws of physics. This exceptional kit allows you to build two different water and air powered systems: water jet propelled automobiles and hydro pneumo (which simply means air pressure and water pressure) powered engines. The hydro pneumo system uses a self-contained water and air turbine system as a motor. Construct 15 models including a radar car, motorcycle, excavator, truck, antique car, tank, rocket car, backhoe, forklift, roadster, propeller plane, cutting machine, grinder, and helicopter. The water jet powered cars will let kids enjoy outdoor activities, while the self-contained hydro pneumo powered models are entertaining both indoor and outdoor. Compete with your friends to determine whose water jet powered vehicle and hydro pneumo car goes the farthest. The package includes 48 page color instruction book and 165 building pieces.
Thames & Kosmos Remote Control Machines
Build your own motorized machines and vehicles and control them using a wireless remote controller device. Distinctive six-button infrared remote lets you control three distinct motors moving all directions, with easy-to-activate touch sensors. The 3 motors could be combined to create complex machines and vehicles in a lot of configurations limited only by your creativity. Collect ten versions demonstrating different ways that the motors may be used to build a bulldozer, formula one racer, plow, three-wheeler, folding vehicle, crane, vehicle, robotic arm, three-blade dozer, and classic car. When you’ve finished assembling the models in the directions, you are able to design your very own remote control inventions. The kit includes a remote control unit, three motors, building pieces, and battery holder, The full-color, 48-page manual show the step by step instructions, and 182 building pieces included in the package.
Thames & Kosmos Remote-Control Machines DLX
Build your own vehicles and machines and control them with a remote controller. An infrared remote allows you to control three different motors moving each of them in reverse or forward, together with touch sensors. The 3 motors can be combined to make complex machines and vehicles in a lot of configurations limited only by your creativity. Assemble 20 models demonstrating many kinds of ways in which the motors can be used including the robotic arm, drilling machine, truck, tunneling vehicle, robot, battle car, forklift, ball collector car, stag beetle, crane, bat-bot, three-wheeled car and more. You are able to design your very own remote control models after you finish the models have been built by you in the instructions! The kit includes a remote control unit, three motors, battery holder and 155 building parts. 128-page step by step full-color instruction book.
Thames & Kosmos Remote-Control Machines: Animals Science Kit
Build a whole zoo’s with remote-controlled animals which covered with colorful plastic “skins.” The animals’ movement is using distinct mechanisms, every one mimicking the motion of the true animal it represents. A two-button remote controller unit moves the small motor in turn and forward, allowing the models to move to different directions. Construct a scorpion that crawls along, along with a cute little penguin that waddles. Construct a rabbit jumps everywhere or a crab which scurries sideways. You may even build a few dinosaurs: a Tyrannosaurus rex that walks on two legs and a Pteranodon that “flies” along with a cord. Learn about animal biomechanics and locomotion as you build each model. When you’re finished, use the same 100 building pieces to build up your own mechanical animals! You can even mix the creature skins in funny ways up to make hybrid creatures that are fantastic. A full-color, 36-page book helps children install the animals. This toy is a Parents’ Choice Gold Award Winner.
Thames & Kosmos Remote-Control Machines: Space Explorers Science Kit
Willing your brave robots for a mission to the Mars, moon, or even beyond! With this fantastic technology kit, you can build a model of a robotic rover resembling. Deploy your Mars rover to the garden or sandbox and use the remote controller to explore the terrain that is uncharted! The remote can control up to three motors, which move the rover forth and back, turn the wheels to steer the robot, and control the arm to pick up extraterrestrial specimens like rocks. This 237-piece structure set contains instructions to construct not only the robot rover but nine space-themed models also, including a cross-wing flyer, Mars station, satellite, wacky astronaut, moon lander, robotic space shuttle payload arm, space shuttle with opening and closing cargo bay doors, rocket launcher car, and lunar rover. Kids will be motivated to learn STEM skills through these fun, hands-on construction jobs that bridge two science places: robots and outer space. A 64-page full-color book helps kids assemble each of the models and teaches them about real-world examples of devices, vehicles, and the space robots they’re creating. Read about the technical characteristics of the Mars Curiosity Rover. Find out about the history of Mars exploration, robotics in deep-space exploration, satellites, and the robots in popular science fiction that are space-related. This kit is ideal for every kid who is fascinated with the prospects of being an astronaut, colonizing the moon, or being the first human on the Mars. This toy is a Parents’ Choice Gold Award Winner.
Thames & Kosmos Solar Power
This Science Kit discovers how electricity is generated by cells from light and construct your own solar-powered models. Build six solar powered versions including a twin-rotor helicopter, backhoe, helicopter, bulldozer, single-prop plane, and locomotive. The distinctive solar panel within this kit consists of three solar cells and generates 1.5 volts of electricity in bright sunshine, like an AA battery. An exceptional cradle retains either the solar panel or the battery, letting you switch between the solar panel and AA battery (not included). You may use the solar panel to charge up your rechargeable AA batteries. The solar panel is positionable, so you can maximize its exposure to the sun to create the power. The 24-page color guidance book included in this package gives very detail instructions for constructing the six model vehicles. After you’ve built all models, you can design your own solar machines. Compete with your friends to check the quickest is run by whose solar automobile! The 177 building parts contained in this set are compatible with those in most Thames and Kosmos Construction Series kits, Wind Power Physics Series kits, and Hydropower Kits. All Kosmos and Thames goods have been safety tested to the rigorous standards of both Europe and the USA.
