Summary

This is the supporting files for the Learning Blade Variable Car Mission.

This derby car is to be used by students in the testing dependent variables while calculating the car's velocity (v+d/t). There are three independent variables that can be tested by students. See below for instruction.

The base car is set up with four 6 mm wide wheels, and no weights. The print files allow for students to test the how the car's velocity changes when you change one of the independent variables.

The three variables that can be changed on the Variable Car are wheel size, weight of the car, and weight distribution.

UPDATE: With modern 3D printers being more precise, we've decreased the tolerances of the wheel hubs. They were previously 6mm holes to fit onto a 5mm axel, but we've decreased the wheel hub holes to 5.5mm.
