Build a firefighting helicopter or hovercraft while exploring real mechanical functions!
Illustrated step-by-step instructions guide young engineers along as they snap together the 160+ parts to build, not just the shape of a helicopter, but also the basic mechanisms that make it work, including a differential cage and a right-angle gearbox.
The finished build is a fascinating piece of machinery with propellers that spin as you roll it on its wheels!
Keep the fun flying as you take it apart and rebuild it into a high-speed hovercraft. Or, put your engineering skills to the test and try inventing your own firefighting machine!
