This mechanical rabbit hops and moves forward like a real rabbit. With hands-on making that requires them to identity body parts, assemble and wire up the motor, our students bring home a pinkish, festive rabbit with a futuristic design.

About this project:
The Mechanical Rabbit features a motor with rotating power that is distributed to the legs by way of crank plates to make the robot hop. The rear legs are constructed so that they kick the robot forward like a real rabbit. Rollers are fixed to the feet to contend with extra weight added to the front legs. For best performance, run on smooth, flat terrain and avoid rough roads or shaggy carpets.
