Pitsco Dragsters
Design a shorter, lighter dragster with this kit instead of our other basswood CO2 Dragster Kit. The only difference is that this basswood body blank is about 100 mm shorter than the one in the CO2 Dragster Kits.
Our illustrated, self-directed student workbook holds the students’ attention as they learn step-by-step automotive-design processes. The CO2 Dragster User Guide is available for print here, or you can download a digital copy for free here.
Got a lock, hinge, or machine with too much friction? Don’t mess with sticky, slippery products – this extra-fine graphite powder is perfect for any moving part that’s having trouble with smooth movement.
X-Stream Wind Tunnel
Go high tech with your technology and science curricula with this adjustable-speed, quiet-as-a-breeze wind tunnel. No louder than a room fan, X-Stream requires no hearing protection. When paired with the Vehicle Platform Sensor (VPS) and Stinger Mount Sensor, the X-Stream can measure forces on objects as diverse as dragsters, airfoils, rockets, and geometric shapes.
The X-Stream is quality made too. A low-restriction flow straightener, combined with a 6:1 compression ratio intake bell, converts turbulent airflow into smooth, laminar airflow for repeatable test results. The large testing chamber accommodates a variety of objects, yet the unit is compact enough to sit on a six-foot table. Side and top polycarbonate window panels permit more light to enter the chamber and provide a better view.
