Mousetrap car made for a physics project
Has a max distance of around 400ft when going in 11ft circles in my house
I lost, got beat by my brother by around 4in (we both got stuck on a doorframe)
Mousetrap has a extra wind for more power
Mousetrap arm is a rocket launch stand cut down
Uses 4*7*2.5mm bearings - These are the ones I used

10lb fishing line for winding
The front wheels have axles taken from toy helicopters that are not printed
RC steering is not necessary but I was not confident in my ability to make it go straight
