This is knowledge and fun in one: with the Flybots, the fascination of flying can be experienced up close and experiment fun is guaranteed!
Once assembled, the five different flying objects behave very different in the air and glide, flutter or fly curves.
The launching robot does not require batteries and catapults the Flybots up to ten metres at the touch of a button thanks to its spring
The experiment booklet not only leads through the construction of the set and contains exciting information on the topics of flies and feathers, but also includes many Flybot game ideas.
With this KOSMOS set, craft and flying enthusiasts from the age of eight get their money's worth and get a playful insight into the world of flying.

KOSMOS Flybots
Ready for your own flight show? Assemble your flybots, clamp the spring in the launch robot - and your planes are swiping! Sometimes they flutter like a butterfly, sometimes they shoot steeply in the air or fly in curves. Let them do little flight tricks and find out how this works with the power of the spring. How high and far will your mini planes get?

Glide, flutter and touch physics
Choose a flying object and off you go
With the Flybots, children experience how mechanical technology and fun belong together. You assemble the launch robot together to discover how the shape of the wings changes the flight behaviour of the various mini aircraft. This makes physical principles playfully experienced, and the children's room becomes a starting place for exciting flight experiments.
Build yourself, amaze and try it out
In addition to ideas for flight manoeuvres as well as the individually illustrated assembly steps, you will find many exciting background information in the enclosed experiment booklet. Children experience how much joy it is to build something of their own, and thanks to the sophisticated structure always keep an overview. Learn, discover, have fun - all in one booklet!
Spring Mechanics and Physics
How do the flybots fly off without electricity? The secret lies in the clever spring mechanism of the launch robot. Children tension the spring, release it at the touch of a button - and experience how mechanical energy turns into movement. Depending on the design, the mini planes flutter, glide or curve through the air. Children playfully understand how energy is stored and released - a fascinating introduction to the world of physics.
