Product Information
Build an over - one - foot - tall inflatable tube dancer that wows with its air - powered moves! This motorized device, similar to the air dancers you've seen around town, uses a blower motor and a fabric tube to slink, shimmy, and shake. Assemble the model to understand its inner workings, like the fan and electric circuit with battery, motor, and switch. Conduct four exciting experiments on air pressure, air flow, and aerodynamics. Float a ball on an air stream, play air basketball, and launch balls with the air cannon. This hands - on kit makes physics fun and shows the power of air pressure. An eight - panel, full - color manual provides step - by - step illustrated instructions for building the model. Key features include building an air - dancing model, assembling and decorating your own tube dancer, adjusting the blower for different motions, learning about air pressure and aerodynamics through experiments, understanding gears and circuits while assembling the fan, and enjoying hands - on activities like air basketball, floating ball tricks, and using the air cannon.
Using the kit is easy. First, refer to the eight - panel, full - color manual with step - by - step illustrated instructions to assemble the inflatable tube dancer. Put together the fan and electric circuit, including the battery, motor, and switch. Once assembled, turn on the blower motor, and watch your dancer start to move. You can adjust the blower to change the dancer's motion. For the experiments, follow the instructions in the manual. To make a ball float on a stream of air, set up the equipment as described. In the air basketball game, aim carefully. When using the air cannon, be sure to follow the safety instructions. As for maintenance, keep the battery compartment clean and dry. If the fabric tube gets dirty, gently wipe it with a damp cloth. Don't expose the motor to water. When not in use, store the kit in a cool, dry place to keep it in good condition.
