## Description

The MakeKit Snow:bit is a propeller-driven sled robot kit designed to work with the BBC micro:bit. Built from laser-cut birch veneer, it features dual motors that push air backwards to propel the sled forward on skis — reaching speeds of up to 40 km/h. A hands-on STEAM project that combines woodworking, electronics, and coding. The kit teaches students about propulsion, friction, and aerodynamics while learning to program the micro:bit. Experiment with different ski waxes and lubricants to see which gives the best glide, or modify the code to control speed and direction. Key Features Propeller-Driven Sled – Dual motors with propellers for forward thrust Laser-Cut Birch Veneer – High-quality wooden construction Up to 40 km/h – Fast propeller-driven sled on snow or smooth surfaces micro:bit Powered – Programmable via MakeCode or MicroPython STEAM Learning – Combines woodcraft, electronics, and coding Note: A BBC micro:bit board is required but may not be included — check the kit contents for your variant. Ideal For STEAM education and classroom projects Learning about propulsion and aerodynamics micro:bit robotics and coding Hands-on woodworking and electronics
