Students learn little from the experience of snapping pre-made and pre-designed wind turbine rotors onto their projects. We wanted them to learn through inquiry and experimentation; designing, testing and re-designing. What did we find? Students absolutely love to build their own rotors, and learn an amazing amount from it.
The kit come with a hub that mounts directly to dowel. The hub can attach 1-to-6 blades.
Plenty bamboo project sticks are included for alternate blade designs and experimentation. You will need to supply recycling bin materials and tape for the blades.
Use these on wind lifts, wind pumps, and other inventions.
