Provides the mechanical and electronic parts to build the chassis for a Student Designed Car (Advanced). Includes carbon fibre tubes, axle bracket and Faulhaber mounting kits, wheels, guide rollers, brass pinion gears and PICAXE 08M2 SOLAR PANEL POWER CONTROLLER (Code:PICSPPC08M2).
PLEASE NOTE: The PICSPPC08M2 is supplied with a blank PICAXE chip, that requires programming (see Note b), however, pre-programmed chips are also available upon request when ordering.
That solar car can be used to compete in the Model Solar Car Challenges held in various states around Australia.
The CHALLENGERSM403 kit is the same as the CHALLENGERV2, except that this kit has the SM403 MOTOR MOUNTING KIT, to allow the competitors to use the SM403 motor. This provides a more economical way to enter the designed cars section and can later be upgraded to the higher performing Faulhaber motor, by swapping the motor mounting kit
This kit does not include either solar panels or the electric motor – these can be purchased separately.
NOTES:
a. This kit assumes use of the ST-403 T1 solar motor (Code: SM403)..
b. A PICAXE download cable (Code: PICUCAB) is required to download the program to the PICSPPC08M2.
A link will be provided to download the comprehensive and detailed instructions.
Soldering required: Yes
Components included: Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, PCB
Hours to construct: 10 - 15
