Thames&Kosmos 555001 Air & Water Power

Build your own models powered by air and water pressure to learn about the laws of physics.

This unique kit allows you to build two different air-and-water-powered systems: water-jet propelled cars and hydro-pneumo (which simply means air pressure and water pressure) powered engines. The hydro-pneumo system uses a self-contained air-and-water turbine system as a motor.

Construct 15 models including a truck, excavator, radar car, tank, antique car, helicopter, motorbike, digger, rocket car, forklift, roadster, propeller plane, grinder and cutting machine. The water-jet propelled cars are a fun outdoor activity, while the self-contained hydro-pneumo powered models are fun both indoors and out. Compete with your friends to see whose water-jet propelled car and hydro-pneumo car goes the fastest!

A 48-page colour instruction book illustrates the step-by-step assembly of each model and related principles so that children learn through playing.
