The Perils of Science
Motorized propeller beanie by Thaed
It’s long been held that “With great power comes great responsibility.” You see, there is a reason scientists aren’t trying to find a way to make sharks fly. 1 Some things were just not meant to be. Like flying dogs with motorized beanies.
Seriously though, mad props to Thaed for this cool new puppy accessory.
What self-respecting nerd wouldn't have one of these things lying around? Originally, I wanted it to be solar powered, but I had to settle for AAA batteries. I scavenged the motor and propeller from a 6 in 1 educational solar kit. There's no reason why you can't print your own propeller and use a motor from a cd player or really any motor.
