JellySTEM BottleBoat Racers - Build Guide

JellySTEM BottleBoat Racers – Build Guide

 

In this course, students build a small micro:bit-controlled BottleBoat using recycled plastic bottles, a fan-driven propeller, and a steering rudder. The project is designed as a hands-on introduction to engineering, combining building, testing, and simple programming in MakeCode for micro:bit.

 

Students will:

 

  • Build a working BottleBoat step by step from the kit parts

  • Use two micro:bits: one on the boat and one in the handheld remote

  • Program both the receiver on the boat and the transmitter in the remote

  • Explore basic ideas of floating, thrust, steering, and motion on water

  • Learn how small changes in mechanical design affect the boat’s behavior

  • Optionally go further by opening the Tinkercad models, modifying parts, and printing or laser-cutting their own versions
