Paths and Pendulums

A little friendly competition is always fun. Construct, decorate, and play Skittles. This traditional version of the game will have a pendulum whose weight and speed are determined by you. Try to knock down as many pins as you can. Decorate your game to tell a story.

Build and design a car with a controller. Navigate an obstacle course. Learn the limitations of unidirectional motors. Change the course and redesign your strategy. Test your skills with your friends in timed course runs.

Fee: $85
