- Perfect mousetrap vehicle kit for beginners and seasoned veterans alike. Designed and engineered for success by a former award winning Texas physics teacher. Comes ready-to-assemble with pre-cut and pre-drilled lightweight balsa wood.
- This mousetrap car kit comes with light-weight brass tubing axles that spin with less friction for increase speed and distance, and do not warp like wood dowels, for a smoother ride without wobble.
- Includes Doc Fizzix's flexible rubber CD/DVD wheel spacers that are designed to act as shock absorbers to damper small bumps and imperfections in the road surface providing for a smoother ride that will increase both the speed and distance of your vehicle project.
- Includes Doc Fizzix’s Ultra thin, low-inertia wheels that are half the thickness of a normal CD/DVD and only have half the rotational inertia. Less rotational inertia means your vehicle will travel further and faster when compared to a normal CD wheel.
- Features Doc Fizzix's easy-wind, snag-free propulsion system designed specifically for mousetrap powered racers
- Can be used for all speed and distance mousetrap car contest and/or STEM challenges
- Finished vehicle measures approximately 4.5 x 5 x 12 inches (H x W x D)

DESCRIPTION:
Little Moe is packed full of fun! Little Moe is a small, lightweight, economically priced, and easy-to-build mousetrap powered racer kit that is perfect for any first time builder. Little Moe comes ready-to-assemble with pre-cut and pre-drilled parts so it can be built and ready for action on the same day. As with all our mousetrap car kits, Little Moe comes with step-by-step instructions that are filled with tons of top secret performance tips and tricks that have been developed exclusively by Doc Fizzix so that you will have all the information you need to make your Little Moe mousetrap racer a winner. Little Moe can be used for both distance and speed.
Little Moe can be assembled in less than 30 minutes for most first time builders and when finished it will travel from 15-30 meters (actual results may vary). As with all our top mousetrap racer kits, Little Moe includes our "easy-to-wind" and "snag-free" string release system that will not tangle and/or snag and is designed to increase performance, a technique developed exclusively by Doc Fizzix.
Little Moe comes with ultra-thin, low inertia, DVD layer wheels that are the same diameter as a normal CD/DVD but only half the thickness. Because these wheels are only half the thickness compared to a normal CD/DVD they have only half the rotational inertia and your vehicle will have a greater acceleration and a greater travel distance compared to a similar vehicle using normal CDs/DVDs.
