Part 1 - Assembly

To assemble your car, you will need to complete the following steps:

1. Cardboard Base - With an 8.5 x 11" sheet of cardboard, crease and fold about 2" in from each short edge. This should leave enough space for the battery pack to fit neatly in the center.
2. Mount Motors - Align the motors as shown, and mark the points where the axles will go through the sides of the cardboard. Use a sharp pencil to VERY CAREFULLY punch a hole in each side for the motors. Connect the motors to the wheels through the sides.
3. Connect Electronics - Place the batteries inside the battery case, and tape the case securely to the cardboard body. Connect the wires from the battery case to the motors, and secure them with masking tape.
