Solar Plane rotating

cults3d

Made for fun during holidays. This plane spins with sunlight power. Simply plug a solar panel into the motor and it's ready to go. Using an affordable Chinese motor and cell found on Ebay, along with one small drone propeller sourced via Ebay.

I use an aluminum pipe with an external diameter of 6mm; you'll need screws, glue, wires in addition to the above items. Cut the pipe as needed, then adjust the weight inside before gluing it shut. It's able to spin even on a cloudy day. If you live in a sunny area, choose a smaller cell. I had a lot of fun making and testing this plane. The design is unique; I came up with it on my own. Hope you enjoy it! Video here: https://youtu.be/bBAxtIRgLxo 7 pm on a cloudy day at the end of August, no direct sunlight but still spinning.
