We are stoked that you would want to share it with your followers! You can create a playlist and add this video to it. Set the playlist as featured on your channel, and it will be right on your front page.

I don't understand why everyone is in love with Kipkay. He has a channel that he posts crappy videos to so why don't you go and watch that. Also I am just happy they have started weekend projects again.

Some solar cells actually have a solar engine circuit pre-printed to the solar cell that you can see at 4:46 and 5:17

I can't say I'd heard of KipKay until reading the comments. This project is useful for getting an understanding of some core electronic principles and analog hardware. Yes, this project only scoots along with solar energy, but switches and other components are easily added to create complex behaviors with no programming. Check dumpsters for toys, walkmen, and VCRs for parts. You don't need a lasercutter. Paperclips are great for adding structure. BEAM is an excellent robotic entry point.

No - we don't. I love Kipkay, but I honestly like this more. Kipkay has his own channel for a reason, and he posts videos on it. I like these in depth tutorials - Kip makes it easy so anyone can do it, but this gets more technical. I like this guy more

Why cant you use simple diode? Its the same like LED but LED emits light.

LEDs also act as light detectors. if it were exposed, the sunlight would trigger the caps to dump into the motor before they built enough charge.

Great Video guys, is the flasher led that necessary could one not just use a small voltage divider to switch the transistor. That way it would role rather than jerk. Mike

No, you could use a normal diode though, just check the data sheet to see at what voltage it starts conducting.

Great project to do. The only problem is the laser etcher, not many people would be able to afford one, let alone a 3d printer if a weekend project came along too.

I find it hilarious that people come on here yelling "WE WANT KIPKAY" and then when you go on his channel you find people yelling "THESE PROJECTS SUCK." Seriously guys? Get your shit together, he's the same person on either channel.

what happens to a solar panel when you use a magnifying glass and sun on it ??

The LED is light sensitive and can cause the solar engine to not fire if too much light is leaking in.

I really appreciate what you guys are doing. But I always thought the weekend projects were meant to be easy and quick so that almost anyone can make them in a couple of hours. When Kipkay was doing these projects he always made sure to pick a project that one, for sure, could do in a weekend. This project to me would require going out and looking for these specific parts which in my small town, isn't so easy. I guess I just want this shit to be a bit simpler with a bigger profit.
