Pitsco Education Catapult contains awesome learning power as it demonstrates stored tension and projectile motion. Students can build and use this kit to demonstrate:

• Force and motion
• Vectors
• Trajectory
• Potential and kinetic energy
• Simple machines
• Medieval history

Plus, students can develop math, physics, and problem-solving skills by experimenting with the catapult to reach different distances with varying weights of ammunition (pieces of clay). Going back to the dark ages has never been so enlightening!

Clay included; color may vary. Requires white glue, sold separately.

Pitsco Education Catapults - Getting Started Package is the perfect solution for lackluster activities in the classroom. This package provides enough materials for 30 students to build and experiment with their own rubber band-powered catapults. Students discover the effects of various load masses and different rubber bands as they also learn about tension, forces, data graphing, and other concepts.

Requires white glue, sold separately.

Pitsco Education Crane gives students the advantage of understanding the mechanical advantage inherent in cranes. These machines help build the world as we know it. Featuring laser-cut parts, this Crane Kit can be built easily – students quickly move on to experimenting with load, ballast, and other concepts.

Includes basswood parts, string, hardware, and a user guide. Requires a small Phillips screwdriver and white glue such as HD Bond II, sold separately.

Pitsco Education Discover Heat Transfer Action Pack warms students up to the cencepts of thermal conduction, insulation and other heated subjects with this National Instruments Action Pack featuring the myTemp miniSystem. Following the lesson plans, students learn to measure and gather data for heat as it moves through various materials such as aluminum and wood. 

This pack provides the Pitsco myTemp miniSystem, NI LabVIEW™ Discover Heat Transfer software, detailed lesson plans with Next Generation Science and Common Core Math standard correlations, seven thermistors, electric heating plate and heat lamp, and other materials needed to complete the investigations.

A NI myDAQ is required, sold separately. Comes with PC-based installation DVD.

Pitsco Education Double Trouble Mousetrap-Powered Racer is an ultra-fast racer with two mousetraps for twice the power, speed and distance! This package includes all the components for you to assemble this speedy mousetrap vehicle.

Requires glue and needle-nose pliers, sold separately.

Approximately 5/16" wide x 9/16" high x 13/16" long

Pitsco Education Large Trebuchet Demonstrator is almost two feet tall, and definitely hits the spot for showing a classroom the physics of this classic siege machine. This big cousin to the Trebuchet Kit can sling up to a 10-gram projectile using up to 1,000 grams of counterweight. The demonstrator also comes with the option of a wheeled platform, making it more like the trebuchets from the pages of history.

Includes laser-cut basswood parts, wooden dowels, string, sling material, hardware, 30 mass plates, and clay. Built model with wheels is 21" H x 26" L x 6-1/2" W. Assembly required using glue such as HD Bond II and a screwdriver, sold separately.

Pitsco Education Little Moe Mousetrap Vehicle is the best little car kit on the market. It is ideal for students who have limited access to tools or are new to building mousetrap vehicles. Little Moe is one of the fastest mousetrap cars and travels from 10 to 20 meters for most first-time builders. The kit is predrilled and ready to assemble and includes materials for a 13" car. Requires glue and needle-nose pliers, sold separately.

Pitsco Education Mousetrao Vehicles - Getting Started Package provides an easy way for 30 students to get the mousetrap vehicle activity rolling in your classroom. Students experience simple machines and other physics principles through the design and construction of a vehicle powered only by an ordinary mousetrap.

Requires ruler, hobby knife, wire cutter, and a drill or Dremel tool, sold separately.

Pitsco Education Mousetrap Vehicles is a complete start-to-finish design activity. The student follows the design process and sees direct applications of science and technology as he or she designs and builds a mousetrap-powered vehicle and competes with classmates to design the fastest car or the car that goes the farthest. Each kit includes a mousetrap, balsa wood, four CDs (for wheels), CD spacers, thrust washers, brass tubing, string, and building instructions.

Requires white glue, ruler, hobby knife, wire cutter, and a drill or Dremel tool, sold separately.
