Techno Gears Quirky Copter is one of the most enjoyable and satisfying construction sets we've seen in quite some time. Kids love it, and for good reason. The easy to follow, step-by-step illustrated instructions allow young builders to progress quickly (no small feat, given the set's 80+ construction pieces), the copter taking shape at an impressive rate. The end result is even more dazzling: a sizeable, colorful helicopter whose gears and rotors spring into action at the press of a button, its entire surface seeming to come alive all at once. With more than a dozen interconnected gears thrumming with activity and driven by a single motorized source, these movements demonstrate the science of gear ratio while providing children with exciting, hands-on insights into its practical applications. This product aligns with the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) standards. Requires 2 AA batteries.
