Rubber Band Car


 
Challenge: To design and build a car that is powered using a robber band.
Experience: Through this experiment we were able to observe the ideas of other groups to help improve our own design and also learn from our own mistakes and correct them through multiple trials. Since this was our first challenge, we discovered the strengths and weaknesses of each team member and assigned tasks based on that.
Solution: To complete this challenge we tried multiple designs in order to find the best one. According to our observations, we discovered that using larger wheels and longer Lego pieces gave us the most desirable results. By the last trial our group came in third place!

Below are some of the pictures of our different designs.
