Every kit order is supplied with a detailed teaching unit which provides construction ideas and comprehensive assembly instructions. Most teaching units also have a theory section, as well as, PCB overlays and circuit diagrams (where applicable).

To assist you in evaluating the scope of work involved to complete the project, we have developed lite teaching units, which can be found below. Each lite teaching unit has a description of the kit, what is provided in the kit, additional items and tools that may be required, information about the project, and where applicable, what theory is covered. These overviews / lite teaching units are not designed to be used as assembly instructions - particularly for electronics.

Please note: We are currently revising our current lite teaching units into Scorpio Kit Overviews. This is a work in progress, and we appreciate your patience and understanding.

To access specific kit overviews click on the kit name below and the Overview will download. If the kit you are interested in does not have a downloadable Overview available, please contact us.

Introductory Kits & Introduction to Electric Circuits Kits

These kits for our vehicles and other devices have been graded according to the level of skill and expertise required to construct them, as well as the skills to be learnt.

The kits listed here are the more basic designs, and are quite suited to both late primary, and early secondary level.

The list details whether the kits contain electrical, electronic or mechanical components, and indicate how much classroom time may be needed. All kits require fabrication and soldering.

Subsystem - Gearboxes

Scorpio has an extensive range of subsystems. These are kits which have been designed to be used as part of a bigger project. These subsystem kits fall into 3 categories and are ideally suited to STEM teaching:

  • GEARBOXES (assembled or unassembled)

  • ELECTRONIC KITS

  • MECHANICAL

Each SUBSYSTEM comes with a Teaching unit which has a complete description of how to make it – how you use it is up to you!
