Loopwing toy car runs on wind power
August 31, 2007 – 8:35 amFiled under: Misc. Gadgets
We’re big fans of both alt-power and silly toys, so Tamiya’s latest kitcar, the Loopwing, pushes all our geek buttons. The build-it-yourself kit car comes with its own windmill, and just five minutes of charging in a five mile wind powers the three-wheeled racer for three and a half hours. We have fond memories of building a Tamiya RC10 kit when we were kids — hopefully the $30 Loopwing will inspire kids to think about windpower the same way our kit inspired us to think about taking apart everything we owned.
