This unit enables children to gain understanding of an important mechanism, using belts and pulleys, and to learn more about control using electricity and an electric motor. Children can then be introduced to computer control. The focus of the unit is to design and make a model of a fairground ride but it could be adapted to suit any product in which an electric motor produces rotating movement.
Unit 6D 'Controllable vehicles' is an appropriate alternative to this unit.
