securely
around the
plug.
Do not
connect the
battery
directly to
the coated

It will
become
very hot!!
Tip:
Put the coated wire through the hole and wrap it around the plug.
Then, wind the end back on itself as shown.
Wrap it tightly so that the coated wire cannot come loose.
Make Cord A (with two connector plugs attached).
Attach a connector plug to both sides of the coated wire.
Make Cord B (with one connector plug attached).
Connect one end of the coated wire to the connector plug.

Plug the
connector
plugs into the

the propeller will
begin to spin.
Remove the

If you turn
the electricity
on and power
the motor it

The propeller
ies up!
Keep the propeller away from your face and hands while it is spinning.
Point the propeller away from your face and other people.
Which way is the
propeller spinning?
What happens when you switch
the placement of the plugs?

Tilt the propeller.
Turn it on
and let it run!
Be careful not to poke your hand with the axle stick.
Keep the propeller away from your hands and face while it is spinning.
Which way is the car

The way the plugs are
connected will change
the way the propeller
spins and the way the
car moves.
Electricity has a current
and connecting the plug
the opposite way
reverses the electric
current, which causes
the motor to spin in the
opposite direction.
Electricity ows from the
+ terminal to the
– terminal.
